Teaching Kitchen & Culinary Theatre

Teaching Kitchen & Culinary Theatre

Assiniboine’s Manitoba Institute of Culinary Arts (MICA) opened for classes in the fall of 2007. MICA is home to learning spaces such as the state-of-the-art teaching kitchen and the Manitoba Canola Growers Culinary Theatre.

Teaching Kitchen

The state-of-art culinary teaching kitchen is a chef’s dream. Here, students learn everything from knife skills to food prep to specialized menu creation. Working within Assiniboine’s Field-to-Fork approach, Culinary Arts students take food grown by our Sustainable Food Systems and Horticultural Production programs and turn it into mouth-watering realties.

The teaching kitchen also includes a baking kitchen is where students make some of their most mouth-watering creations. Each year, students and faculty put on decadent events, and the scrumptious desserts and pastries for all of these impressive soirées starts right here in the baking kitchen.

Culinary Theatre

This $1 million culinary theatre is equipped with every possible appliance. Assiniboine’s Red Seal chef instructors host cooking demonstrations here; Continuing Studies workshops also utilize the space throughout the year.
