Life of a Culinary Student (Day 3)

Didn't do much today (again). Watched more videos on knife safety and sanitation. Reviewed the brigade de cuisine (system of chefs in the kitchen), kitchen equipment, some vocabulary, and  recipe conversions. Starting on knife skills tomorrow!

Life of a Culinary Student (Day 2)

Not much happened today. More introductions, a short talk from the librarian about library resources and a tour of the different kitchens in the school took up most of the day. Passing by the other kitchens and watching other students cook got my class pretty excited. Soon we would be in their shoes and work for the school's restaurant. Working on basic knife skills tomorrow. Let's hope no one gets their finger(s) cut off.

Life of a Culinary Student (Day 1)

Today it begins! The start of my journey to become a chef! I've been waiting almost a year to get into the program and the day has finally come. All we did today was go over paperwork, scheduling, and the guidelines of the course.

Sorry about the two month disappearance (for lack of a better excuse, I was lazy), but I'll try my best to keep writing daily, or weekly if I get too busy (or lazy). For family, friends, and those who stumble and read upon my blog, I'll be writing about my time at culinary school. I've got lots to learn, and who knows, maybe you'll learn something new too. Oh, and I'll keep writing restaurant reviews as well. Stay tuned!
