My name is Dion and i'm currently living in Greece. My goal is to open my own restaurant.
For the last 2 months I have been exploring all the different culinary schools worldwidely.
However... can't decide which is the best one (with the distinctive criteria of tuition-quality of knowledge received) ! I have concluded to the following and could really use your input.
1. Le Cordon Blue - 50% of the people say it's a waste of time and mainly a good marketed brand than an actual school and not worth 50K, the rest quite the opposite. One thing that appealed to me is that I only need 10 months to complete Le Grand Diplome.
2. C.I.A. - Same as tha above + you also do waitaring duties, which is not only fine by me but also applaud it
3. The French Culinary Institute of New York City - ?????????
4. Johnson & Wales University - ????????
5. George Brown Chef School - ??????
6. Kendall College - ???????
7. California Culinary Academy - ?????
8. L’Academie de Cuisine -????
9. New England Culinary Institute
What do you think of the above? Any other schools I shold be looking into?? Especially in Canada, since I am also Canadian citizen??
Just one request : PLEASE explain your input. I don't care if it's personal experience, a friend's of yours or the general view in the market.
Thanks a lot!
