Not so sure yet, cause you are nothing different than those come out from Form 5, it is because ur experience level is that stage.

But... What support us is our Training Program. so far i had trained for 8 months, and another 4-6 months training when i reach Degree.

What make you different from Form 5 ppl and you are the paper and u can be promote faster than those form 5 ppl,Diploma highest u can go maybe sous chef( Kitchen Chef) Degree Highest is Executive(Highest)

=)

My chef recommends Taylor's and KDU for Culinary Arts, maybe you can think about it seriously, the cost is very high because of the professional lecturer or chef, perhaps? Anyway, I've gone through a training in kitchen (hotel) before, it was hell for me, lol! However, passion can motivate a person to go on, haha!

owhh . okay .
the cost is a problem for me=(
What bout hospitality ?

Either Taylor's or Tunku Abdul Rahman College, lol!

Bro, can share your experience why was it hell for you what they make you do?

For me i been trough 3 training ady.

Club Med, 1 Restaurant in Mentari there, Grand Dorseet Subang ( Admin)

Well, Club Med is hell for me, Hell i tell u.

1 month i stuck in kitchen and the rest is bar and Restaurant service

during the month in kitchen (working shift 9am - 1pm ,4 hour break, continue 6pm- 11pm)

From Monday to Sunday u get 1 random day off

I work in Buffet line is not that much to suffer peak hour is not that rush.
But Ala Carte in Restaurant that time i tell u 5 order come in 1 shot and u serve like mad Griller is heating up fast and so heaty the force keeping u pushing, customer complain u just acknowledge it.


To Conclude what i gonna say, without passion u cant continue, with passion u will forget and think that is just an improvement.

For those thought that Celebrity Chef like Gordon Ramsey, Booby Flay, Heston blumenthal. is cool and easy right?
NO! they suffer alot in the back all chef push them self to the limit to climb until where they are today.
So far, only 1 Malaysian is celebrity chef in South East Asia, Chef Wan.

Hello (: anyone here graduated from Taylor or KDU ? mind telling me which one are better ... T_T hard to choose ohh and also how about BUCH ? Berjaya ...

You shall refer to munak991, more or less is similar case, lol!
Kitchen is long working hour, even you are trainee (8 hours of working/training), senior staff could make you stay up to 10-12 hours (somebody case)
Another chef I know, he is patissier, according to him, he got a bad result during school time, however, he is top 2 student during his culinary study, passion is very powerful, haha!

Those chefs really gone through hard hard hard time
