Slice An Onion, Poach A Fish…
You’ll love every minute of this hands-on experience, whether you are deftly slicing an onion, gently poaching a fish, or creating one of the many classic dishes contained in the curriculum. Using our trademark Total ImmersionSM method, you’ll learn from the same dynamic, passionate chef-instructors who train our career students. Lessons are as fun as they are intense, and you'll find yourself picking up new techniques, skills, and recipes faster than you ever thought possible. Best of all, you'll leave with memories of an exciting, inspiring experience, and culinary gifts which you—and your very lucky guests—can enjoy for a lifetime.

Each one is as challenging as it is delectable, and you’ll get the focused attention you need to make them all shine.
