Master classic and contemporary cuisine skills and add your own signature style.
In the Superior Cuisine program you will learn about the current evolution of French cuisine. Full menus, demonstrated by the chefs, are inspired by trends from today's top kitchens. Some recipes are original; others are contemporary interpretations of the classics you already know. The ingredients are richer and more refined: you will be working with foie gras, truffles and lobster. Now well-versed in French culinary skills, you are encouraged in Superior Cuisine to be more creative in both taste and presentation.

I realized I always wanted to be in the kitchen with my mom, but not necessarily watch her cook, but rather have her move aside and let me do the cooking. That's really when I realized that this is what I want to do, this is what I want my life to be about.
The people here are incredible! Obviously there is the learning experience, but also the ability to meet people from around the world and hear about what food means to them.
... that's the key to the Cordon Bleu experience - we have amazing Chefs who want to teach us everything they know - and we need only ask. We have the opportunity to learn that goes far beyond the demos, practicals and the workshops.
