Constantin Giebler in the kitchen of Restaurant La Rive, Amsterdam. |
Constantin says:
"I work permanently as the entremetier in the kitchen of Restaurant La Rive, a Michelin star restaurant, part of the Intercontinental Amstel Amsterdam. The most expensive and luxurious hotel in all of Amsterdam. For many months we were ranked #1 restaurant in all of Amsterdam by Tripadvisor. We are ranked 7th best in Holland.
I am extremely happy here and moving up fast as I have been promoted already from cold kitchen chef to warm kitchen garnish chef, and have incorporated myself in some groups such as the environmental team in order to gain knowledge and show pro-activity.
Amsterdam is a great city, with so much to offer. I am truly happy here."
"I thank you very much Mrs. Hofmann, for everything, as I must say I have it pretty good right now, and owe a lot of that to you and everyone at Alpine. You have open doors for me and taught me things that have enabled me to fulfill my dreams and live the life I wanted to. So again, for that I thank you."
We are so proud of you Constantin!
