Dr. Okey, a retired UGA faculty member, studied cooking and baking at Peter Kenny's New York Cooking School for a year, as well as at the Italian Culinary institute on Costigliole D'Asti and with Diana Folinari in Positano, Italy. He has done internships at La Colombe d'Or in New York, and at Le Grizzli in Paris, the Patisserie Seurre in Paris, and at the Tribakery in New York. The cost of the course included the ingredients for meals. The extended time is to allow for dinner and clean-up.
