One thing you could say about culinary school they sure are colorful. So colorful, in fact, that their funny, silly, and even rude quotes were just crying out to be put into a book. This is that book.
Loaded with laugh-out-loud quotes and jokes, insightful comments and fascinating tidbits, this is a peek into the real world of the culinary school . A world loaded with comments such as " The great news is it is always bacon season." And "It's white trash of me, but I'll take chopped liver over foie gras any day." And this absurd exchange between a culinary school chef and "Chef, I don't really understand this chicken and rooster thing. How does a rooster fertilize an egg?"
"They have chicken sex."
This book takes you behind-the-scenes where you can eavesdrop on what culinary school chefs and students are really like. If you've ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes at culinary school, this is the book for you.
