Dessert will remember me for Louisiana bread pudding. It is ten times more decadent than my grandmothers and I have yet to see it made in any store. An old railroader named Charlie Simms from "Donna' Brass Band Bar" in New Orleans taught me how to m…
I think that that is a very lofty idea. There would almost be a ready supply of future chefs in the wings. There's only one problem with that idea; everybody that graduates from culinary school LCB or not are not serious about thier cooking. The ide…

Richard Countryman said… - I'm glad you are having a good time at WDW. I was there for Epcot's Food and Wind Festival at the end of Oct. The Festival wasn't a great as in years past in my opinion, but I had some great dining experiences there. You're right, Disney is always good on a resume. The volume you do at a theme park, especially Disney's, will never be questioned.

- Disneyland was a great place to work. When I worked there it was an honor to be employed there. Every kid in SoCal wanted to work for them. I had a great time cooking there. One thing you won't have to worry about in Florida is the union. It stifled growth for most of the cooks. The best man was not always the one getting the promotion, but the one with the most seniority. I loved working for Disneyland.

- They are currently working on their bachelor's program actually but it is not up yet. However Orlando has an LCB and might have a graduate program, if not then FSU in Tallahassee has the 2nd best hospitality program in the country. Tallahassee is the same distance from Orlando as Miami. Are you doing your externship at Disney?

Mark Webster, CEC, CCE said… - The friends that I knew worked there did pretty well, but a few of them hired on as Pastry Chefs. I did know a couple in their culinary program though. Just have fun with it!

Melanie Gehrman, CC said… - A couple of my classmates went to Disney on externships and they both got fired. But that was their fault for being lazy and too much partying. They did say that you are basically their slave while you are there and work constantly. They do not tolerate being late (but then again, no employer does!). They also said that they were stuck doing the crap buffet and more fast food jobs instead of real culinary quality of work. I feel that no matter where you go you need to work your hardest and learn as much as possible. One of my classmates, who was fired, went on to help open a new restaurant in Nebraska. He was 18 years old. So long story short, use everything you can to build your resume for sure! And have fun! Your externship will be over and you will be graduated sooner than you think!! Which LCB are you at?
