This scholarship was created to honor Chef Paul Cannamela. Chef was a 49 year member of the Culinary Arts faculty at ECC. He was responsible for the separate culinary arts curriculum at City Campus and designed the facility when City Campus opened. Chef Paul or “Mr. C” was responsible for many culinary careers throughout the greater Buffalo area. It’s hard to walk in to any regional restaurant and find staff that didn’t have “Mr. C” as an instructor or mentor. He was a gentleman, a caring instructor and an excellent chef.
