ADVICE: Do I go to culinary school?

5


5 per session - Virtual OK - Posted Jul 05, 2017

I went to culinary school at the age of 32. I would be happy to talk with you about what your goals are and whether you should invest the time and money in getting a formal culinary education.

This is good advice for both teens pursuing culinary as their first career, as well as adults who are looking for a change of careers, or just to improve their cooking!

Training & Qualifications


I’m a chef, but I don’t work in a restaurant. I only work in my clients’ homes. I don’t do once-a-week-cooking, where someone would make several meals and package it all up. My unique career niche is that I bring cooking equipment and bags of groceries into a client’s house, and prepare elegant, multiple-course meals, from scratch, for a small dinner party.

Availability & Preferences


I'm always around!

Trading Preference: I prefer being paid in simbi

About Chef JoAnna Minneci

My specialty is In-Home Fine Dining, and my passion is cooking delicious food using the freshest ingredients possible. I like to incorporate both exotic & local vegetables, fruits, and grains into hea...lthy dishes that are full of robust flavors. One of my most valuable skills is that I can adapt almost any recipe to accommodate salt/fat/sugar/carb restrictions. IN-HOME FINE DINING: I cater exclusively in-home, creating intimate dinners for up to 16 guests in a private residence. I can provide china, stemware, flatware and specialty-service items, and everything in between. I will create a gourmet restaurant in your home for the evening. http://chefjoanna.com/FormalDining.html COOKING LESSONS: Anything you want to learn, I can show you. Whether I can help people fit healthier foods into their lifestyle...or teach you to make a decadent meal for a celebration. I can also organize team-building cooking classes upon request, at your place or in my 400 square foot kitchen/lab in Southern Middle TN. http://chefjoanna.com/lessons.html GIFT CERTIFICATES: Looking for a gift for the person who has everything? Why not give them a gift that will last a lifetime? Cooking is a skill that they can benefit from for years, and the memories will endure, too! http://chefjoanna.com/gifts.html Please visit my website at http://www.ChefJoAnna.com I am happy to offer cooking advice, just send me a proposal and let's see what we can work out together! show more
