Culinary Schools & Programs: Hundred of Programs in the U.S and Abroad (Peterson's Culinary Schools) ReviewOne would think that a consumer guide to anything would give you the ability to compare apples to apples. In other words, you would be given the same information, in the same format throughout. Ideally, you pay a guide to do the work for you so that you don't have to waste time going from website to website in order to gather information. For example, I would, at a minimum, expect this guide to give the tuition for each and every school at the time of publication. However, the guide provides this information here and there. It's as if the editor just didn't feel like working that hard and if they actually had to contact the school, they didn't bother. Don't waste your money since you'll have to do most of your research online anyway.Culinary Schools & Programs: Hundred of Programs in the U.S and Abroad (Peterson's Culinary Schools) Overview

The Making of a Pastry Chef: Recipes and Inspiration from America's Best Pastry Chefs ReviewAs a student in culinary school, this gave me a clear understanding of what to expect in the food industry, the differences between a chef & a pastry chef, and what personality profiles fit each position. It was also entertaining to learn the inspirations of today's top pastry chefs. Very similar to "Becoming a Chef", by A. Dournenberg, but from a pastry perspective. I read the entire book in 3 days! Worth every penney.The Making of a Pastry Chef: Recipes and Inspiration from America's Best Pastry Chefs Overview

Culinary Careers For Dummies ReviewIf you're cooking up a new career, CULINARY CAREERS FOR DUMMIES is a good, if basic, place to start. If you already know quite a bit about the industry, maybe not. It's a practical overview, focusing first on various jobs in the trade. First instance, you will learn that, between 2008 and 2018, jobs for cooks in full-service restaurants are expected to rise by 8%, in cafeterias and institutions by 10%, and in other areas by 16%. People have to eat, after all, and people with little time on their hands tend to eat out. This is not to mention those captive audiences who HAVE to eat "in," not "out" -- students, hospital staff, and prisoners (to name just a few).
Most prospective employees of the trade think of restaurants, naturally, but this book spells out the many other avenues open to those entering the culinary industry. For instance, there are hotels and resorts; pastry shops and bakeries; catering companies; spas; private households; educational institutions; hospitals, nursing homes and retirement homes; cruise ships; airlines; correctional centers; military bases and schools; test kitchens, development kitchens, and commissary kitchens; wineries and breweries; grocery and specialty food stores; restaurant supply distributors; and public relations and marketing firms. So much for only sending your resumes to Chilis, Applebees, and Outback!
While the book acknowledges the benefits (for some) of on-the-job training, it also surveys the culinary school scene. It considers, too, the fact that not all cooks care to make the same foods. Thus, the section on specialties looks at becoming a pastry chef or baker, a personal chef (no, you don't get to choose your celebrity), even a mixologist (mixing drinks is apparently a branch of "cooking").
There's even nuts (and, as required by law, bolts) to be found. Here is advice on writing a resume, there advice on interviewing techniques. Charts are even provided with expected pay scales for various food-related occupations (don't get your hopes up: a chef or head cook has a salary range of $22,120 to $66,680 with a median salary of $38,770).
Overall, it's informative in a "breadth, not depth" kind of way. Looking for an overview of the industry? I think this will serve (food humor for you). Looking for some real insider info? You might keep clicking. It's a big bookstore.Culinary Careers For Dummies Overview

Miss Invisible ReviewFreddie is a just your regular almost 30 something woman, who has a job she enjoys, with a boss she hates, trying to find that special guy. Oh and she's also on the bigger side which ironically makes her easy to miss. She's learned to blend in the crowd, pleasing society by eating carrot sticks in public and then going home and downing a pint of ice cream. She's learned to keep her anger inside and stay hidden. Then she meets Deborah, a caterer who gets Freddie to release her true self and become a new person. Once Freddie finds her voice, her life changes- for the better.
Oh I loved loved LOVED this book! The story is excellent, the characters are great, there's so much food in the book! I could really relate to Freddie. I'm not a big girl, but neither am I a size 6 either. I felt the same way she does about how smaller girls always get the attention from society and everyone else gets ignored. And I was really glad that Freddie showed realistic reactions to those girls that wear low cut jeans and belly baring shirts. I loved that there is a character named Deborah in this book. Usually when I read a book where there is a character that shares my name she usually gets it shorten down to Debbie (ugh). Not so here, and what an awesome character Deborah was. I wish I had a friend like her in my life. I really felt for Freddie when her father kept insulting her throughout her life. It really hurt during the party when he did it to her face right in front of everyone. I'm glad that the author did not feel that this book needed to have a tidied ending where Freddie and her father magically get along. I would not have believed it if it was written that way, it would have been completely unrealistic. I just loved how real this book is. Christians do tend to be prejudiced in regards to appearance no matter what they say.
I really loved this book. And I totally did not feel guilty about eating ice cream while reading it either! This is one of the best chick lit books I have ever read, Christian or secular. This is a perfect book to pass along to non Christian readers as well, it's not preachy at all, just a fun good read. If you haven't read any of Laura Jensen Walker's other books, I highly recommend reading those as well. I know I'll be anxiously awaiting her next one!Miss Invisible Overview
