KMS Goldwell’s SMART Retail Program - A SmartMove For Bogaarts!

Winners of the KMS Goldwell SMART Program were treated to a ‘Money Can’t Buy Experience’ at ‘The Press Club’, an award winning restaurant in Melbourne. Head Chef and owner George Calombaris of Masterchef Australia fame, gave a cooking demonstration where he showed how to prepare tuna tartare, how to make pasta and ravioli and then he plated up an amazing chocolate desert. This was followed by a 8 course degustation menu prepare by George for the group with matching wines in his private dining room.

George welcomed the group saying that he loves his profession as he gets to watch people faces as they eat his creation. He said this was a like hairdressing when you cut an style a beautiful hair cut you like to watch the transformation and peoples faces as they enjoy the new hair cut. So similarities exist between being a chef and a hair stylist! 7 salons from Australia and 2 from New Zealand attended including Bogaarts, Pukekohe.

Angela, Bogaarts owner, had this to say: "First of all, I just could believe that Bogaarts Styling Lounge won the amazing trip to Melbourne! I took along my husband, who by the way, is not a stylist but a Motor Sports Track Manager and drag racer. The whole experience of the trip was great right from the start and our flights there and back were not once affected by the Chile ash cloud. This was surely a great sign!

Meeting George Calombaris of Masterchef at his flag ship restaurant ‘The Press Club’ was an absolute delight! He indulged us with a personal cooking demo and let us in on some amazing ideas. His restaurant is one of Melbournes top eating places and the atmosphere and food is an experience in itself. Sensational! We sat at the table with stylists from NZ, Tasmania and of course from around Australia. Lots of great food, plenty of wine and a load of laughs! Thank you to KMS and Goldwell for this experience.” Said Angela
