    I'm satisfied with faculty members, infrastructure, and education.
    Placements: Many hotels visited our college to offer placements. Students with full knowledge of cooking practically and verbally were placed and students who don't know cooking were not placed.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college was good but sometimes, there were fans and water problems on the 1st floor but now, it was repaired. Labs were well-designed. All the food materials were fresh. Wi-Fi was not available for students. Free food was served regularly.
    Faculty: Teachers in our college were helpful, qualified, friendly, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality was good. The course curriculum was relevant and made students industry-ready. Exams were difficult but if students study well, they can easily pass.

    Our college has a value for money, and it is a great place to try kitchen studies.
    Placements: No placements were provided for the diploma batch, while if you're outstanding in the practical as well as theoretical knowledge and are in the top of your batch they might allow you to sit for a few campuses. Many hotel brands come for placement selections that include top hotel chains, mid-scale brands and also retail sector brands. Placements are though tough if you are a diploma candidate, but easier for a degree one. But the diploma holds good value for the people who don't have the time to invest, and we can get the job. The average salary offered is lesser than the degree holders.
    Infrastructure: We had fully equipped kitchen labs with all the equipment and proper ventilation. We got all the ingredients inhouse. Classrooms have air conditioning, and we have an inhouse doctor for an hour and also a counsellor for any guidance. There were no particular sports teams or any games other than sports day.
    Faculty: The diploma area was covered basically by one teacher only for practicals, and he was very friendly as well as experienced in work. They tried using very innovative ideas and examples to make studies easy. Sometimes the classes didn't happen due to lack of theory teachers.
