These are photos from the culinary school I teach at. Except for the first photo which is from Central Market.
I'm the one with the big tall hat. A chef instructor is the "chief" or lead in the kitchen, hence the big hat.
The other chef instructor Michael is the one drinking coffee in the photo to the right. I have to taste and critique everything the students prepare. You can imagine how many bites of food I take on days I teach double shifts. 17 students x 3 plates with 3 components on each plate, now double all that!
Pasadena is a terrific location for a professional school. The diverse student body reflects the general demographics of Southern California. We also have international students for allover the world. A wide variety of produce is available in the San Gabriel Valley, Downtown Los Angeles, Koreatown, local farmer's markets, Little Armenia, Thai town, and so on.
