Greetings, chefs and aspiring chefs alike --
I am wondering if anyone has heard anything about the quality of the program of Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. Le Cordon Bleu has a fabulous reputation, but I've never heard any first-hand accounts of students who attended the program. The only interaction I have had was with one of their little programs at Brown College here in Minneapolis -- and after touring the campus and speaking to people there, I was far from impressed. I am wondering if their actual Paris program is different, or is this "great" reputation just a whole lot of propaganda?
I will most probably be attending CIA next January, but if the LCB Paris (or Ottawa, potentially) is as good as it is supposed to be, I might seriously consider them.
Any thoughts?
Thank you all in advance for your help.
Michele
