The Guide to Cooking Schools 2003

By ShawGuides

If you've ever toyed with the idea of making your love of food a profession or even just taking a couple of professional in-depth courses, this guide is for you. Listing more than 1,000 culinary and wine programs, "The Guide to Cooking Schools" offers information on institutions, wine courses, cooking vacations, classes for kids, contact information, scholarships, food and wine organizations and more. The New York Times has dubbed it "the bible of culinary education" and we find it quite helpful. While it doesn't really describe what cooking school is actually like (you have to figure that out for yourself), it is a great means for embarking on a culinary future. You'll learn what various programs and courses have to offer, what it will cost you, how long the program is and who to contact. Especially, if you don't have an idea for how to go about embarking on a new career or what types of facilities there are available to you, this guide will clue you in.
