Counie: always try alternate spellings, such as Soyer.

Edit: I apologize for being an enabler!

Just in case you missed my answer on the Welcome thread:

See Larouse Gastronomique or Helen Morris' "Portrait of a Chef" for a complete biography of Alexis Sawyer.

Thanks for all your help.

Looking for Alexis Soyer was a definate bonus! I have good info now. Whoever thought that training to be a Chef would involve so much time in front of a computer . . .

Well, Barb, to become a chef one has to learn about EVERYTHING: history, mathematics, languages, business, literature, geography, psychology, archeology, chemistry, art, and ... oh yeah, cooking. As you read through all the different boards here, you'll see how much people need to know that you wouldn't think has anything to do with cooking. But that's why it's such a great job: everything you ever learn, anywhere, turns out to be important to doing your job well. And the best chefs never stop learning.

Just a hint -- if you have other questions, look for which other board they fit best on; they might not get answered properly if you keep adding them here.

PS: the one school subject chefs seem to get by without is spelling . Just keep trying to spell it different ways as it sounds, or sound it out as it's spelled to figure out what it is!

No one likes boring old research more than I do Maybe I'll find something more about this mysterious person.

No offense, anyone, but please start a new topic for new discussions; the only reason this thread has been left open for replies is that Shawty has been consistently adding on and adding on and adding on some more resources for students. Then she added on some more.

Thanks.

Ok Greg.........will throw ole Alexis Soyer out on the big board.

How does research on a few famous chefs sound? Just caught myself grinning and rubbing my palms together... I truly am nuts.

Links to resources are pretty much what this thread is about, so knock yourself out! Questions and discussion are for the main board, though, please.

Thumbs up good ol Soyer

I understand Greg,

Thanks for all your help, I'll use the excuse that I'm new and don't know much.

I live in a small town 3 hours away from any major library so the tips etc you've all given have helped immensley

Will see you on the main board then .

thanks again

Barb
