Culinary Arts

Come into the world of Culinary Arts where creativity, imagination, and perseverance will lead you to a food adventure. Beautiful pastry, cake decorating, boning a chicken and turning it into a savory experience, fileting a fish to cook "en papillote", sauces and breads, egg benedict on homemade English muffins, catering VIP dinners, beautifully carving a stuffed beef tenderloin, serving or cooking for our restaurant, competing in Skills USA. The Best part? You will have covered all of the basics of Culinary Arts and be able to enter the work place or Culinary school comfortable with the vocabulary, equipment, and math.
