Memories from a Le Cordon Bleu alumna – Gladys, class of 1993
From her beginnings in 1993 to the founding of her own school, her story is marked by passion, perseverance, and a deep love for gastronomy
Q: Why did you come to Le Cordon Bleu Japan?
A: I want to do something about the way we eat. A lot of consumers are wary about chemically-named ingredients in food products simply because they don’t understand what they mean, but they’re not all bad.
After finishing the Grand Diplôme here, I’m going on to study nutrition. I want to demonstrate that science and nutrition can complement with food without compromising flavour or satisfaction and influence eating habits a little at a time.
This is why I’m here at Le Cordon Bleu Japan - to learn proper fundamentals. I need to know how to make things the right way before I start tampering with recipes.
