Culinary Institute of America MAG
I love everything about cooking. I love to be in the hot kitchen filled with the smell of rosemary being crushed, the odor of the pastries coming out of the oven, the Béarnaise sauce simmering in a pot ready to be drizzled over fresh Alaskan king salmon, and all the entrees being plated for the customer. But most of all I love the atmosphere of the kitchen and am awed by the speed at which every dish is customized for each diner. I could talk all day about how the culinary arts are such a humbling, difficult, and rewarding profession. My passion for cooking is why I believe it would be a wise choice to accept my application for entry into the highly esteemed Culinary Institute of America. When it comes to citizenship and the ability to work with others, I excel. I am never too harsh nor too lenient toward others. I try to deal fairly with all and am open to others’ opinions. I follow directions very well and do what I am told while still trying to infuse my own creativity into the food I cook. My strongest point in the kitchen is my ability to use the equipment for its intended purposes. I work well with melon/cheeseballers, whisks, blenders, pans, and especially cutlery. I use only the finest Hitori Hanzo cutlery and take the utmost care in cutting, dicing, mincing, and chopping with speed and precision while maintaining a safe cutting environment. When it comes to the speed of productivity, you can find no one better. In my mind, my most profitable skill would have to be my enthusiasm and willingness to try new things. Cooking is a skill that can never be perfected no matter how hard you try but the knowledge I want to obtain will help me in the kitchen more than anything else. The CIA is such a prestigious school that I would be honored to attend. I promise to be a student who will live up to its high expectations.

10 Valuable Lessons I Learned in Culinary School
Hey everyone! My name is Payton Spear and I am a student here at The Culinary Institute of America. In my time on campus, Iâve made a lot of memories and learned a lot of lessons. Iâm writing this blog today to tell you some of the many things that the CIA has taught me so that I can not only be successful as a student, but also as a chef in our industry. Thank you and happy reading!
Mise en place is life for everything.
Knowing what to put first on your list is always tough for me because I always think everything is a priority. Whether they be in or out of the kitchen, I always think that things all need the same amount of energy, and thatâs an easy way to burn yourself out. Coming to the CIA helped me so much, though, because the chefs and advisors taught me how to spot what really matters and how to see the most important things in a list. This skill also helped me in organizing my life and daily schedule because I saw how much time I could dedicate to each task. Now I understand and manage with the same eye. Seeing how I can make the most of my day is always a plus.
Having good time management skills lead to a balanced life.
There never seem to be enough hours in the day, and there are always too many tasks on the list, but just like in lesson number 1, learning to see what is important is a major asset to your schedule. My days are usually pretty packed, whether itâs kitchen classes, Student Government Association, tours, or my other work on campus. The key that I found to keeping a level head through the day is organizing my time and balancing it out. You canât be stuck in the dorm all day studying; itâll end up being counterproductive and you wonât know whatâs happening on campus. All work and no play is simply impossible here at the CIA! With our countless clubs, events, and campus activities, thereâs something for everybodyâwhich means thereâs bound to be something that will interest you. I do all of my activities because I enjoy being a part of something bigger than myself. The people Iâve met along the way have made my life better; whether Iâm stressed about a test or missing my family, they have been there for me.
Show you care. A necessary component to success in this industry is passion.
A chef can teach anyone to ice a cake or make an anglaise with enough practice, but what they canât teach you to do is care about your work. Thatâs all natural and our chef-instructors look for it every day because they had the same look in their eyes. Be thirsty for knowledge and always ask why we do things a certain way. Show that you want to be here and the chefs will guide you and even respect you for it. I believe passion is a necessary component to success in this industry. Without passion and joy in what you do every day, you wonât have the drive to work your hardest and make the best possible product possible.
Use every opportunity you get to do better than the day before.
We as students grow every day. Our knowledge, skills, and life lessons are all expanded because of the experiences weâve had here at CIA. One big thing I discovered is that if you open yourself up to new opportunities, youâll have learned something new that you didnât know before. I may not have found my calling in breads or entremets, but at least I got the chance to try them before I started working in the real world. Even in fundamentals class, it was full of new experiences because the CIA way was a whole different learning experience. The growth I see in myself from when I started in almost unbelievable. I started with the same people in my class that Iâll be graduating with and I have seen the growth in each and every one of them, too. As a class, we support and teach each other new things all the time.
Get involved and give back when you can.
I never considered how fortunate I was until I made volunteering a regular occurrence and made sure to constantly keep myself grounded. Dr. JJ (one of my past professors and a huge role model for me) has offered every opportunity to anyone interested in helping. The events at CIA that allow you to give back to the local community and to other students on campus are absolutely amazing. Even now, Iâm an orientation leader for accepted students because I know exactly what it felt like to be in their shoes and I want them to know somebody is here for them from the day they arrive on campus. I plan on keeping community service in my life even after graduation because nothing made me feel better than to help another person.
Appreciate the little wins and learn from your mistakes.
Every day isnât going to be your best day; weâre at school to make mistakes and learn, and thatâs all right. Itâs important that on âthoseâ days, you see the little wins where you can get them. Yeah, you may have not made the perfect sorbet base, but your mousse was light and airy, exactly like it should be. You canât control the situation, but you can control how you react to it and your perspective. This such an important thing to learn because of how often we have situations like this happen in the industry and in life.
Mistakes will happen; just try to think of solutions and not excuses.
Probably one of the worst things you can say to an instructor is, âI swear, chef, itâs not my fault!â. Hearing those words puts them in the wrong mindset for whatever youâre about to say next. Chefs understand that weâre learning a lot of new techniques and that there are bound to be mistakes. What they want us to learn is that thereâs no point in wasting time placing blame when you could be putting that energy into coming up with a solution. That shows them that youâre quick on your feet and can find a solution when being put on the spot. Use this mentality in all aspects of your life and youâll see a change.
Networking can lead to lifelong connections and a dream internship!
One of the biggest reasons I chose the CIA was because of the amazing connections made available to me simply because I was affiliated with this school. You may not know it yet, but you are networking every day, even as a student. You never know what your classmates are going to be doing 10 years from now. We learn from some of the best people in our field and to have the chance to network with them is amazing. Even getting a recommendation from one of your instructors could be enough to change your life.
Treat everyone with respect.
While on my internship at the Four Seasons in West Palm Beach, they had one rule that was taught to guests and employees alike: treat others like you want to be treated. That simple rule changed the way an entire resort was run, and my internship was made so much better because of it. It is also a point that is stressed at the CIA. No matter where you are or who someone is, be sure to follow this rule. Respect should never be lost in this industry.
Have fun while youâre here!
Yes, you are here to learn, but be sure to savor every moment and enjoy the time you have here while you can because time flies by. The things I learned, the friends I gained, and the memories I made will always have a special place in my heart. So, donât stress too much, and get ready for the time of your life. We canât wait to see you when you get here!
I hope these lessons help you someday just like they helped me!

Who Influences You? Culinary Institue of America Admissions Essay
| / / |
You are free to use it as an inspiration or a source for your own work.
I understandthe importance of language proficiency in ensuring that all students take maximum advantage of learning opportunities both in and outside classrooms. It is not surprising that communication has emerged as one of the most in-demand soft skills in the job market because the ability of organization to achieve its objectives also depends upon how effectively various stakeholders within the organization communicate with each other. Even institutions with the best instructors and state-of-the-art facilities can fail to achieve their objectives if communication barriers prevent students from achieving the programâs objectives. Luckily, I possess the required language proficiency to take advantage of all the educational resources available at Culinary Institute of America (CIA).
I have been studying in the U.S. for almost four years now. I started learning English even before I came to the U.S. but the progress towards English proficiency in the U.S. was amazingly faster than back home. The experience taught me that no test or language teaching classes can beat the process of learning language through actual conversations with locals, consuming media in the local language, and reading books. My experience in the U.S. has significantly improved my English vocabulary and has also allowed me to learn variations in English language around the world through interactions with students from other English-speaking countries like England.
I have also learnt that our progress in any language becomes quite faster once we start thinking in that language. During my early days of speaking English, I would usually follow the two-step process which would involve gathering the idea in my native language and then translating the idea into English language. But as I gained proficiency in English over time, thinking in English became natural to me. This may be due to the simple fact that practice significantly speeds up the progress. Back home, I would only speak English during the English language class but after coming to America I had no choice but to adopt it as my primary mode of communication.
I have also improved my food-related vocabulary which will be quite helpful at CIA. CIA has become increasingly diverse and my food-related vocabulary will also enable me to improve the learning experiences of other students from my native country or related cultures. My food-related vocabulary has also improved because I have been reading books on food and cooking that mention agricultural products, spices, and herbs etc. from all over the world. The reading activity has also opened my eyes to the tremendous progress in gastronomy in the last few decades and some chefs and cooking experts such as Nathan Myhrvold are even exploring the art of cooking from scientific point of view.
I hope I will be granted an exemption from the TOEFL requirement because my English language skills far exceed the instituteâs required English proficiency. Moreover, I also have developed an impressive food vocabulary in English language that will further improve my learning experiences at CIA.
Even though my current major is Photography, I actually started my studies as a Fashion Merchandising major. I made the mistake of choosing the major with incomplete knowledge of the program as well as understanding of my own strengths, skills, and interest. I did will in the beginning of the program but eventually started struggling because the program turned out to be quite different from my expectations. As a result, my grades suffered and I eventually changed my major to photography. As soon as I changed my major to Photography, the trend of decline grades reversed and since then I have been doing well. Thus, my cumulative grade is not a good indicator of my performance in current major because most of the courses that have determined the grade were related to Fashion Merchandising. The lessons learnt from the experience motivated me to do proper planning and research to ensure that culinary program will be the right fit for me.
I have no doubt I will do really well at CIA. First of all, I will be coming to CIA with a wealth of knowledge obtained from reading books and article on the science and art of cooking. In addition, I already know that my strengths, skills, and interests are suited to the culinary education. As I read the books, I got inspired to learn even more and I will be brining the same passion for learning to CIA. I am also excited because at CIA I will be able to interact with several individuals who share my passion and come from diverse cultural background.
I hope the admission committee will put greater emphasis on my grades in photography-related courses because they are more reliable indicator of my potential performance as a student at CIA. I chose fashion merchandising major without proper research and paid a high price as a result. But the experience also taught me the importance of planning and I have applied to CIA only after being convinced that cooking is my passion and I have the skills and foundation to succeed in the program.

Culinary Schools in St. Petersburg
There are dozens of culinary schools in the state, with all teaching their students the same basics of cooking, food handling, and presentation. But only a few St. Petersburg culinary schools also provide their students with the business know how to enter the competitive restaurant market and open their own business. A growing trend among culinary schools is to invite celebrity chefs to regale students with their own experiences of what it was like for them when they first started out.

Not only are the landscapes breathtaking, but also the meals, with Central Avenue and the Beach Drive featuring a range of restaurants
Eight out of the eighteen expert works done by Dali are found in the St. Petersburg museum.The artist's unconventional, dynamics in design and style developed him to be a top representative of the Surrealist movement (a twentieth-century unconventional art and literature movement which attempted to rediscover the budding innovative capabilities of the unconscious mind). Dali's most recognized artwork and a perfect illustration of surrealism is found in The Persistence of Memory. The Persistence of Memory displays clocks melting in a landscaped surroundings; it's a mind shifting piece of art that carries away visitors.
The museum building is a 6137.41 square-meter structure situated in close proximity to the St. Petersburg waterfront, is a masterwork in its own right.

You will enter the museum via the gift store, furnished with an extensive collection of merchandise linked to Dali's work. The "Glass Enigma" tops the Museum from inside. It consists of nine hundred distinct triangles and stretches from the floorboards to the ceiling. It then goes up like the helix-like concrete spiral stairs that was influenced by the spiral styles that regularly appeared in Dali works of art.
The Dali Museum is primarily committed to the job of Salvador Dali. It has the biggest assortment of Dalis operations out of Europe. His extensive selection of art surprises many people. His earlier works incorporate still lifes, portraits, and landscapes. On the other hand, his later works integrated intriguing double images and large religious paintings.In his later works, Dali incorporated geometry, optical illusions, and holography. Several exceptional exhibits have touched on his works as a filmmaker who collaborated with Luis Bunuel in this aspect of the art work.
