    Has anybody been to or graduated from The French Pastry School right here in Chicago? I was wondering if anybody had an opinion about the school...

    I am a graduate. I feel extremely lucky to have studied under Chefs Jacquy, Sebastien and John. Is there something specific you'd like to know? Are you considering attending?

    I have just heard good things about the school...I am already a Pastry and Baking Grad but just wanted to hear opinions about it for others I might recommend...
    How long ago did you graduate from there and what area of Pastry do you work in now?

    Thanks,
    Robert

    My daughter graduated from the French Pastry School. She went immediately to W upon graduation, did a stage at Peninsula, and then moved to NY, where she became pastry chef and then manager of a fine dining restaurant.

    I was very impressed with Jacquy, et al. He's on the US pastry team (or whatever they call that) so he is completely knowledgeable and has contacts with all the best restaurants, so he can help his grads find jobs.

    Has anyone attended their week-long pastry camp? It's expensive ($950) but sounds like they pack a lot of info into it.
