Welcome to The Culinary Institute

High quality New Zealand trained chefs are in demand worldwide. Culinary is a growth industry, it is dynamic and exciting; alive with action. Located in the beautiful Bay of Islands, our award winning school, “The Culinary Institute of New Zealand” will train you to be the best and have great fun while doing it.

Every year our students take away numerous awards from the New Zealand Culinary Fare competition. We are proud of our reputation as a ‘Centre of Excellence’ and our award winning tutors are some of the best in the industry.

The Culinary Institute has strong links with Northlands Hospitality industry and Chefs Association. Through these we are able to place students in work and keep in touch with current food trends.
