St. Andrew’s Cafe - The Culinary Institute of America

Graduation is nearing! I am currently working at St. Andrew’s Cafe at the CIA. This is a ‘class’ we are required to take, and we get to explore more what it’s like to work in a real kitchen as well as what it’s like to work front of house. 

Above is a Duo of Chicken - A Pan Seared Chicken Breast and Braised Thigh with a Savory Bread Pudding, Wilted Spinach, and served with a Red Wine Sauce.

It is impeccable. 

Class is going well so far, and my chef (Chef LiPuma) has a LOT of great advice and his lectures are so valuable. No school tomorrow, woo-hoo!!
