So many instructors first fell in love with cooking because of the efforts of Julia Child, a lover of French Cuisine like no other!
CAFÉ has asked L'Academie de Cuisine to take classic French preparations and update them so that new generations of culinary students might experience what makes this Cuisine so extraordinary.
Join instructors on the week–end of June 18–20, in Gaithersburg, Maryland, for French Cuisine: Classic to Contemporary Applications and renew your own passion for this gold standard in the culinary world.
Topics to be covered include: Sauces, soups, pastry, mousses, custards, vegetables, and more!
Delmar Cengage Learning has announced two new books this year that CAFÉ attendees will embrace: Copies of “Le Cordon Bleu Cuisine Foundations” by Le Cordon Bleu Faculty and “Case Scenarios in Hospitality Supervision” by Dr. Peter Szende will be given out to attendees of these relevant sessions.
French Cuisine will be the topic at the French Cuisine: From Classic to Contemporary Applications, June 18–20, at L’Academie de Cuisine and attendees will be awarded this hot-off-the-press copy of the text applicable to their classrooms.
”Case Scenarios…“ is the topic of one of the break out sessions at the 6th Annual CAFÉ Leadership Conference, June 25–27, in Baltimore where Dr. Szende will be presenting and handing out copies to attendees of his session on Saturday afternoon. Sign up for this session is required. For more information about all of these events, go to the CAFÉ Events Tab
