Hi Jesse I saw that you left me a friend invite. What culinary school do you attend and also what is your major? I don't mean to come off as pushy asking so many questions, but I just finished my classes and I am in my externship at the Marriott Hotel and Resort in Florence, AL. I attended Le Cordon Bleu in Chicago and alot of people don't understand the industry, so I am excited to communicate with someone who actually understands.
great to meet you--a oversee 225 up and coming students ages 14 to 21-eager to be in the culinary field-- if youre ever in chicago drop in and see the school--
Germany is great, good food and nice people. Book choice would depend on what you want to do. Since I only went to Culinary College part time and my military job did'nt allow me to practice my craft like I wanted to I have to keep my library stacked with the basic classics: The New Professional Chef, Ma Cuisine, On Food and Cooking and The Art of modern cookery. Also a copy of Culinary Artistry. Will your school be attending the Culinary Olymoics in Erfurt?
Jesse glad to head your ambition, you are just what our field need. There is a book you should read "The Soul of a Chef", by Micheal Ruhlman it awesome book.
Hi, Jesse. I just finished school at Le Cordon Bleu Atl. I am currently doing my extern. Keep you head up, and always remember to Keep God First. Educate yourself... read as much as you can. School will teach you what you need to know but it is up to you to take it to the next level. Good Luck with everything. Take Care.
Good luck Jesse with you culinary career. More positive role models are needed for young men and young women. Being in the kitchen doesn't have to have the same stigma as long ago. There are more avenues available in the culinary arena and it's good that you want to make things happen!
I'm currently in culinary school and have 3 more semesters left. I'm looking to network with other chefs and learn all I can. I'm like a sponge so I ready to soak it all up, as well as share what I'm learning. My goal is to eventually transition OUT of corporate America and into the CULINARY industry full-time. Food is my life!!!
When did you enter the Culinary Profession?
I've been cooking since I was a kid...ANTICIPATING when I can do it full-time!!!
