Yes,Chef! I’m Ready for Boot Camp. Imagine yourself standing at the stove in the CIA kitchens with Chef right next to you, tasting your cooking and showing you how to bring out its full flavor. Does it get any better than this for people who are wild about food? At CIA Boot Camp, you learn by doing, by cooking and baking with all of your senses, and by working with the best in the business. And because community is at the heart of food and cooking, you’ll experience an instant connection with like-minded Boot Campers who come from all around the world. Simply put, CIA Boot Camp is crazy-good fun and amazing learning all wrapped up in one unforgettable culinary vacation.
WHAT TO EXPECT No matter which Boot Camp you choose, be ready for full and exciting days in the CIA kitchens. The variety of ingredients, flavors, and dishes you will be exposed to is extensive, and allows you to see and taste much more than you personally prepare. •G enerally, in cooking-themed Boot Camps, four teams of three to four people will each make a portion of a broad selection of dishes that comprise the menu. Your chef-instructor works independently with each team to help prepare their dishes. In this way, you’ll be exposed to a mix of dishes that helps to create a full and rich experience. • I f you’re taking one of our baking and pastry-themed Boot Camps, you’ll also work in teams to prepare a wide array of items. Since you won’t be preparing your own lunch or dinner menu, you will enjoy meals prepared by CIA degree program students, sometimes using some of the products you’ve produced in class.
WHAT’S INCLUDED? • Top-notch instruction, fun, and great food • A dining experience in one of our on-campus restaurants, or at a local restaurant when ours are closed • A CIA Taste duffel bag filled with your chef’s uniform, course guide, Food Is Life® T-shirt, and travel mug
