MAJOR CATCH UP!!!

HEY GUYS!!!

I know I am wwwwaaaayyyyyy behind but these past few weeks have been hectic, trying to balance school and a new job (that I'm about to quit) lol. But any who, I have time now so let me try to give you a short synopis of what I've been doing. Since my last blog, I've learned how to fillet fish and cook various fish dishes.

I've made lobster, mussels, scallops, escargot and learned a whole lot about sea food (which I love so I am so happy).

I've cooked chicken, duck, quail, filet mignon, beef medallions, pork chops, pork loin, lamb chops, lamb stew....I think that's all lol it's jut been so much!

Here are some more pics (sorry I dont have more, but sometimes I'm on a time constraint, and I just dont have enough time to take a pic.




I also volunteered at my school for this event called the New York Culinary Experience. This is like a weekend conference where normal people come and are taught various recipes by well renowned chefs. I volunteered with Bill Telepan and Ben Pollinger.
Below are my stalker pics of Morimoto and Marcus Samuelsson.

DISCLAIMER, I WROTE THIS LAST WEEK AND REALIZED I NEVER POSTED IT!!! I CURRENTLY JUST FINISHED MY 4TH DAY OF CLASS IN LEVEL 2!! (ill post more by the weekend)
