Culinary students, book your spot for the exclusive ABALOBI Student Workshop and Practical Masterclass taking place at the Gastronomy Africa Conference & Expo on 19 October at Breakers Resort, Umhlanga Durban.

Student Workshop
From Hook to Kitchen: Sustainable Seafood Sourcing

Ever wondered what really happens between the ocean and your plate? Join ABALOBI, alongside chef [TBC], for a session on sustainable fishing, ethical sourcing, and why the choices you make as a chef ripple all the way back to a fisher’s boat. Walk away with the tools to source seafood that’s good for your menu, and good for the ocean.

19 October 2026 | 45 minutes | Breakaway Room

Practical Workshop
Nose to Tail, Ocean Edition

Join ABALOBI and chef Greg Henderson for a hands-on masterclass in whole fish utilisation, where every part of the catch earns its place on the plate. Learn practical techniques for breaking down, handling and using a whole fish with as little waste as possible, skills that make your kitchen both sharper and more sustainable.
