Should I join the AIR FORCE or go to CULINARY ART SCHOOL?

Thursday, September 23rd, 2010
Annette V asked:


My name’s Annette and I’m 18 going to community college.
I like school, but I don’t want to wait two years to receive my associates degree
and I have my heart set on going to culinary school because that’s what I want to do.
The Air Force seems really interesting to go to, because you get to go to all these places
and have money after if you join.

My brother Eli say’s continue school to get your associates degree and then go to the Air Force
because you’ll have more of a choice.
I’m kinda in a bind!! Also I’m afraid I’ll get home sick so what should I do?

Le Cordon Bleu or The Art Institute’s Culinary Schools?

Monday, September 20th, 2010
Ramon P asked:


Which of these 2 schools look better on a Chef’s resume? I have the opportunity to choose from both schools and want to know if the training is comparable. Is one school better than the other or do they both over successful programs? Any chefs out there that have worked with graduates from both schools who can tell me which graduates where better prepared/skilled for the kitchen. Thank you for all you’re helpful answers in advance.

Do you have to know how to cook to get into culinary school?

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010
Filthy Victorian asked:


Are you already expected to know at least the basics, or do they teach you everything you need to know? I plan on going to culinary arts school to become a cake decorator, the only problem is that my dad doesn’t allow me to cook. But whenever I see my mom (twice a month) she’ll let me bake a cake or something like that. But if you do need to know ahead of time how to cook, then I think I’m screwed.

How much does culinary school cost?

Monday, September 6th, 2010
Hali Stone Montgomery asked:


I enjoy cooking and have experience as a baker, mostly cakes and deserts. I want to take actual classes and possibly get some sort of certification in the culinary arts fields. I know there are a bunch of little private type “colleges” around the United States, but I’d like to hear from people who have actually gone as to the costs.

So, anyone who has gone to a culinary arts school, please, how much did it cost you and where did you go?

Culinary Schools?

Sunday, September 5th, 2010
Marissa J asked:


I want to get into a culinary arts school, but my dream school has an admission requirement to have experience. Some of the job requirements are:
- work in a commercial kitchen (e.g., restaurant, bakery, hospital, and college foodservice).
- volunteer for a soup kitchen, hospital, or the like.

Does hostess,waitresses, or bartending count? Does anyone else know any jobs I should take to get more experience? Please and Thank you! :]
