Good Food Institute @ Simone's Kitchen

We offer a unique experience, to learn Vegan cooking and how it is to work in a restaurant, in a relaxed environment. We create a 3-course menu every 3 weeks and throughout the weeks, you will learn to cook and prepare different aspects of the menu so by the end of the 3 weeks you will be able to create everything yourself.

We can only accept EU residents or visa holders.

We are 3 Chef Managers all originally started as Volunteers ourselves. Ruth from Holland, Milena from Poland and Alistair from England. There are usually 4 to 5 volunteers at one time from many different countries and backgrounds and we pride ourselves on creating a homely environment that is enabled us to work in and live together as a community.

I loved my stay at Simone's Kitchen. Working with Ruth, Milena and Chala was always fun and I learned very much about cooking vegan food, plating dishes and serving in a restaurant. Since we spent our time there as a couple, we were provided a private room. The atmosphere during the shifts was always great and the work has never been overwhelming, although some evenings it can get quite crowded. All in all, we spent a beautiful time in the B&B and Antwerp.

The work is fun and you can definitely learn a lot about cooking. The work can be hard and more then expected but it’s mostly fun!!Ruth, Milena and Chala created a nice working atmosphere which is pretty well organised. The team is nice and welcoming. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. The place is well located and the room you are staying in is fine.

I am really grateful for my stay at Simone's Kitchen! It was a great first experience and Alistair, Ruth, Milena and Chala made me feel really welcomed. Work can be a bit stressful, especially for someone with no experience, but I never felt under pressure or too exhausted. I learned a lot about the work in and around the kitchen and also improved my social skills. Due to their concept of working with only volunteers, i met a lot of lovely people from all around the world. All in all I couldn't have had a better first experience and if you think about applying, I can definitely recommend it!

I had a really nice experience, and I can just say thank you to all the people working in here, they were the most welcoming and kind people.
The kitchen work was really interesting and you get the chance of experiment a lot while cooking.
Antwerp is a lovely city with lots of nice places to visit, it’s pretty calmed and quiet, I will definitely come back❤️

My time at Simone’s Kitchen was really nice and it flew by! Working with Ruth, Chala and Milena in the kitchen, as well as with the other volunteers, was fun and chill and I loved learning more about preparing vegan and healthy meals.
The volunteers there were really interesting and welcoming people. Our schedules were flexible, although some shifts could be a bit tiring. The room I stayed in was very nice, but didn’t have a shower, so I had to use one in the other volunteers rooms.
Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely recommended it! 🥰
