If the information isn't there post a question and it will be reviewed, and if indeed it is a new question or topic it will be posted. I am thoroughly confused after doing what I thought was an adequate amount of research about getting into this business.
Culinary schools do a whole lot of touting of their programs.
I have already my BA in Political Science and French, as well as having studied politics and economics of the European community. I was trying to gain some experience in the basics and hopefully going on to other opportunities. However, I learned very quickly that in my area, there aren't many chefs that are willing to take on apprentices. At this hospital, I learned that many 'cooks' don't have a great deal of patience with someone that has 0 real culinary experience. So, that's why I chose to research culinary schools.
