CSCA, Le Cordon Bleu in Pasadena fails in culinary instruction.

by NoviceChef at Citysearch

Chefs at CSCA Pasadena demonstrate irritability, impatience and often operate their class at a rediculously fast pace (and if supplies aren't available as was usually the case, expect that anger and irritiability to inscrease exponentially) . They are unapproachable and incapable of providing a letter of recommendation because they always appear to be so irritated at the class as a whole, that it makes it difficult for one to ask for a chef's recommendation because there isn't a chance for a student-mentor relationship to develope. It was like being on T.V. 's Hell's Kitchen and the class was being taught by Gordon Ramsey (regardless if the chef instructor was male or female). I've been working in commercial kichens as a paid employee since attending CSCA and when the boss snaps, you take it because that's the guy that signs your paycheck. However, if one is PAYING for classroom instruction and what they get is is an angery, demeaning chef-instructor ... ... well, one doesn't have to sign THEIR paycheck, especially if one can learn more from the class textbook, which would not only be THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS less than the tuition ... but if the book was checked out of a LIBRARY... I guess one could LEARN to be a chef FOR FREE !!

  • Pros: excellent curriculum (schedule of classes covers a variety of culinary subject) / valuable resources (campus library, on-line book catalog and recipe index)
  • Cons: CSCA Le Cordon Bleu, Pasadena, has chef instructors who lack the teaching skills needed to perform under dynamic classroom situations/ no student interaction

Eating at the Culinary School in Pasadena

by gerryjim at Citysearch

We had dinner here tonight and were not impressed. Extremely expensive with food that was average. Wine list is pricey. I thought the price was suppose to be more affordable because students were waiting on you and making the food. Not So!

  • Cons: Too pricey

Unique Finds in Cafe

by christie2000 at Citysearch

The Culinary Arts School has a cafe where they sell unique fancy desserts and have a complete lunch/dinner menu. You can have restaurant quality food at lower prices, simply because these budding chefs are still training. Delicious!
