HEAR FROM OUR STUDENTS

“You can still push the boundaries. There is always something new to explore and learn. I get bored easily, and there is never a shortage of what you can do or learn; there is always room for growth.”

Zackary Stubbs

“I’m not used to working with every part of the restaurant, so I’ve learned a lot about what each side needs.”

LaJohnda Offord

“One of my favorite things about culinary school is the relationships I’ve developed with the chefs and staff. They are very eager to help you get to where you want to be.”

Maggie Mouton

“I’ve gained a lot of insight on how to operate in the industry. I really enjoy the business aspects that are being taught along with the ‘culinary style math.”

Justin Strickland

“It’s all about seeing empty plates, satisfied stomachs, and smiles on faces. When I can enjoy something that I’ve crafted, it brings me right back to being five years old, cooking with my Mom.”
