I can help YOU become UNSTOPPABLE & KITCHEN CONFIDENT by teaching you CHEFFY SKILLS for life.

Hi! My name is Mel Alafaci. My surname is tricky to pronounce, so we settled on Chef Mel.

I have been a cooking school teacher since 2001. My passion is food and people, so I live my dream life.

I recently created online cooking courses to help level your cooking or cheffy skills. You can do this course at your own pace, in your kitchen, with me only a message away to help you as you level up your cooking skills and confidence.

I also have a range of cookbooks to support your learning. It's so important to learn how to have fun in the kitchen and take all the stress out of learning. All the recipes are tried and tested, perfect for weeknight meals and dinner parties.

It's also perfect if you work in the food industry and need to learn more skills. I have a knife skills course that is FREE when you purchase it, so you can master the fundamentals and boost your confidence.

Perfect for home cooks, foodies and wanna-be foodies, food technology teachers, mining industry, private chefs, private yachts, bed and breakfast or hotel staff, catering staff, students wanting extra help...I guarantee you will increase your cooking skills in the first lesson...and then have the confidence to keep learning.

I also concentrate on food presentation, food matching, and food substitutions. Perfect for various dietaries as I always give gluten-free and vegetarian substitutions where possible.

This course also covers basic cooking skills, so it is perfect for beginners, intermediate or advanced foodies.

I am always only a message away, and you will have your private learning portal that you can access from your laptop or phone. Along the way, you will receive progress reports and certificates of completion.

If you need a certificate of skills, I also offer a skills assessment so that you can use it for personal development in the workplace...or just to put it on your fridge for your enjoyment...or to show off to family and friends at your next dinner party!

I can't wait to have you as part of my happy tribe.

Here's to happy, delicious cooking...and skills that will last you a lifetime.

Chef Mel
