City’s Academy players have been cooking up a storm in the kitchen as part of a series of workshops to help them develop their culinary skills.

Second-year scholars, who are currently living with house parents but will move into apartments next season, were invited along for a cookery demonstration at Delia’s Restaurant and Bar with head chef Nigel Ramsbottom.

The group were shown a video from Delia’s Online Cookery School before heading into the kitchen to whip up some egg-based dishes.

Clive Cook, Norwich’s PDP Player Care Manager, said: “If you look at the main life skills that players need, top of the list would probably be cooking skills and next year the boys will be going to be in apartments so it’s important that they are able to cook for themselves.
