Last weekend Josh was invited as a VIP guest at the Kingsmead College Book Fair in Johannesburg. This book fair, now in its 5th year was held on the school’s beautiful grounds in Rosebank. (https://www.facebook.com/page/88514606360/search/?q=josh%20thirion)

Josh cooked up a storm with his demo at the Culinary Corner kitchen as he showed the other teens that cooking is not as difficult as it may seem and it can be fun. Josh also got to hang out with some of the local South African Celeb chefs and Authors.

Some positive feedback from the event: “It was incredible to have Josh there and participating in the Kingsmead Book Fair 2016, especially his ability to talk to all audiences and have them all mesmerized. It was a pleasure to meet you; I hope we get the opportunity to meet again.”
