Cook I am Robert and despite my young age I have a lot of experience working in different types of culinary establishments. I have probably cooked a meal or two for you in local restaurants. I am excited to be cooking for children, and I will try and make lunch/snack time exciting by bringing my own touch to each meal created while staying within the Day Care guidelines. I look forward to using some of the skills that I learned from Chef Rick Lively.
