Hi! I need some help. I am a married mom with 2 kids, 26 years old. I've been thinking about becoming a chef for the past 5 years and have finally decided to go for it. The problem is, how do I start? I don't know any chefs, and I need to know what it takes to become a chef. I am also wondering if age prevents one from being successful in the culinary world. Is it too late? Or can anyone who loves to cook and is serious about learning do it too?
