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.
