Kristen, My name is a Kevin Staff and I am a grad of Le Cordon Bleu ecole de
cuisine et de patisserie, Paris, France.The reason you should go to Le
Cordon
Bleu is to study Classic French Haute Cuisine. The Classic Cycle is
not so much
concerned with he business side of running a restaurant as the
pure form of
creating haute cuisine. This is the focus of the ClassicCycle
(5 classes that
lead to the Grande Diplome). The classes are setup in such
a way as to split
the time youare sitting in the classroom demonstrations
and doing practicals in
your own personal area in the kitchens. 8 to 10
hours a dayin the school is
needed in the second and third trimester to
finnish. Soaking in the culture is
a major part of studying in Paris and I
have found it to be an asset in my day
to day life. This is a tip of a very
large iceberg. If I can answer any
particular questions I would be glad
to. Here is the school address and info:
