Aristkraft puts a French-county spin on Wisconsin resort’s culinary school
Nestled on the banks of Wisconsin’s stunning Elkhart Lake, Jill Prescott, renowned cookbook author and host of the popular PBS cooking series Jill Prescott’s Ecole de Cuisine, has reopened her popular Ecole de Cuisine at the Osthoff Resort—a recreational culinary school in Elkhart. Hailed as one of the most progressive cooking schools for recreational home chefs in the United States, Ecole de Cuisine received a most-welcomed house-warming gift when Artistokraft Cabinetry outfitted the enormous cooking school kitchen with walls of handsome cabinets.
Prescott studied extensively at prestigious culinary schools of Paris. Her background inspired the French-country theme for the kitchen and cabinet design. A combination of Aristokraft door styles and finishes, including Sutherland Cherry in Cocoa Glaze finish and Nantucket Thermofoil Square in Antique finish, gives the kitchen interesting visual dimension.
“I was so pleased with the direction Aristokraft went with the cabinet design,” said Prescott. “The cabinets are unique, but not over-the-top, and create a stimulating learning environment for all the budding chefs who enter through our kitchen doors.”
Sutherland Maple is a classic door style that features a recessed veneer center panel with full overlay. Presented to Jill Prescott’s Ecole de Cuisine at the Osthoff Resort in Cocoa Glaze finish, it is a light-to-medium natural wood color.
The Nantucket Thermofoil Square door style features a raised center panel and a recessed panel drawer front. The white Antique finish adds brilliant contrast to the Cocoa Glaze finish.
“Jill Prescott is such a talented chef and teacher,” said Cathy Hitz, group brand manager for Aristokraft Cabinetry. “Aristokraft was extremely honored to present Jill’s cooking school with cabinetry for the resurgence of her innovative recreational cooking classes.”
