I have been in the food service industry for about 10 years (I am 25). I have worked my way up from a dishwasher at a small college to a cook at an upscale restaraunt in the midwest. I love cooking, and have dedicated my life to it. Unfortunately, I don't have the resources to get into a culinary program right now. I have heard about receiving chef status through apprenticeship only, but am wanting to learn more about this. If anyone has any information on this, including the pros and cons, I would appreciate it!
