please do not call them chefs. they are cooks. you are not a "chef" until the head chef says you are. To be a chef you need to know alot more than what this school teaches you. I believe that kids have a false hope of what working in kitchens is all about. They think they are going to be the next celebrity chef on the food network. Teach them the basics, as cooks, send them out to the real world to finish their education, but please do not call them chef's. I am a chef, and i hire kids out of culinary school, almost right away they want to be in charge, but they are lacking the basic skills. So now when i hire a punk kid out of culinary school, they are called utility workers. they clean, wash dishes, cut vegetables, wash the bathrooms, etc.then when they master that, they are promoted to prep cook. From then they work prepping food for a minimum of 2 years. Then promoted to line cook, then grill cook, then saute cook, get my point.....then once they master all of that.. they may be promoted to Sous Chef (in charge of all food production) and then maybe head chef and then executive chef. Please dont call them Chef's. It is giving them a distorted view on how the industry works, it diminishes the value of people who are real chefs. Thank you

and how many people got kicked out of the program before it ended last year? how many people 'graduated' how many of these young adults liked the program ? there was one good chef there that was the guy and he was the the only one that cared for the kids and the lady dawn was a mean female dog that only cared about what she thought

OK, Cookie, get off the computer and finish peeling those potatoes. When that's done start the turnips and the latrine needs cleaning before noon. Stop daydreaming about being a chef......
