The Chefs

I will now offer a critical review of all the teaching chefs at the Cordon Bleu.

Eric: He looks like a small child younger than most of the students he teaches, and has a cherubic son. He is quite nice though, although I would love to know his age.

Yann: We only had him at the beginning, and he is not too bad. I did find his long monologues irritating at the beginning of class, and his discouragement of non-cooking chit-chat between the students bothered me. I found it very amusing to see him put salt in his food, as he arched his arm in a very comical way.

Jonathan: Definitely the nicest chef. Goes out of his way to help students, and doesn't seem to get upset by an underperforming class like some of the other chefs.

Loic: He is so adorable, but can get annoyed when the class is slow, and has little patience for incompetence. Nevertheless, still a great teacher.

Franck: Where to start. On the first day we had him, it was a complete nightmare. He criticized all the men for having 'caca' on their faces, and swore in French frequently, as well as describing the students' food as being 'caca.' I was terrified of him. Then, the second time we had him, he was much better and began to show his entertaining sense of humour. My opinion changed of him. In t he demonstrations he is even more entertaining, frequently discussing his grandmother, and yesterday complaining about how he was attacked by toddlers over the weekend. He is, quite simply, hilarious.

Stuart: Stuart is a strange one. He is incredibly rude and arrogant at times, but other times can be quite decent. I was especially offended when he came up to me, and described my creme pattisiere as being 'scrambled eggs' and then walking away. Please offer constructive criticism next time! However, at times he has been decent, but seemed withdrawn. Lately he has seemed happier, which is undoubtedly because he is dating one of the students.
