Chef Not Cook
In tune with the magnificent new Cafeteria there's a highly qualified chef. No mere cook! And who is the man who has introduced Hungarian Goulash, and Chicken Ragout to the student diet? He Is Levenbach, a New Zealander by adoption and a German by birth. Fleeing Germany when Hitler came to power Mr Levenbach trained in the culinary arts in Amsterdam. Since coming to New Zealand he has been chef at the Royal Oak Hotel for the past 18 years. His crowning achievement-cooking for the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh during their stay at Moose Lodge In 1952.
