Hello!
I have one more year left doing my A-Levels and I have started to think that I may want to change my career path from becoming a psychologist to becoming a chef. I've posted why in detail in my introduction thread, but trust me, this isn't a fleeting thought!
I currently work part time at a restaurant which serves good food but is no means big. I am a server and act as a starter chef two or three times a week. I would like to become a chef in a prestigious restaurant or hotel. I know these are perhaps ambitious pipe dreams however this is my goal. I also believe the best way of obtaining this goal is to attended an accomplished culinary school to gain professional training a certification. The two major schools I am looking at are Le Cordon Bleu and Tante Marie, both based in or around London. I would like to know what your opinions are on either of these schools as it would be greatly appreciated! I would want to go to a school that would try to place me under a very good chef to learn from after graduation, and it would be helpful to know the entry level salary for graduates of either program, especially Le Cordon Bleu's Grande Diploma.
Many thanks!
