What is a typical day like in culinary school?
Well I have many posts (see above!) that give you a general sense of what we do all day. But in general – class starts at 7am, and usually begins with an hour or so of lecture. Then we break into teams and do production (which means cooking!) for the next several hours, usually until 11am. During the next hour we break for lunch, and depending on what class we are in, we either eat the food that we made (in addition to serving another class plus staff), or we eat in another classroom or dining room. After lunch, we spend the last hour scrubbing the classroom from floor to ceiling – literally! Class is over at 1pm, and at that point I am usually exhausted and ready for a nap.
