Academy of Culinary arts Bangalore Blogs _ BIG DREAMS OF A SMALL TOWN BOY

‘Big dreams of a small town boy’...perhaps, these seem mismatched words. But, then I was always a dreamer. My daydreams, however differed from others, for I dreamt of becoming a chef, a culinary chef to be precise! Now, when and how I inculcated the desire of becoming a chef, I had no idea. Perhaps, the fact that I was a foodie, myself, was one reason, or the fact that both my parents were awesome cooks or the fact, that, I could just like my parents could cook good food, or …..perhaps all the aforesaid reasons.

Growing up in small city, I sometimes felt that this dream of mine would never blossom. I did search through the internet for the best culinary schools in Amritsar. I did find some good institutes but, they were not what I was looking out for.

Then a close acquaintance told me about Academy of Culinary Art, Bangalore. This is one culinary academy that uses state of the art technology to teach the enrollees all the aspects related to cooking and culinary arts. Amongst the satellite towns to the national capital, there are various professional culinary schools in Noida as well, but this one I guess was lot better than other professional culinary schools. Not only, cutting edge technology is used to teach the students with complete hands on training, but at the same time, they are also visited, by chefs of National and International repute who teach the students the latest trend being followed in culinary art. The students here learn the knick knack of cooking art.

All these reasons convinced that Academy of Culinary Arts was, indeed the institute I was looking out for which could give wings to my dreams.

Now, my best friend in Gorakhpur, too, harbours the same dream of becoming a chef, and who is searching out for professional culinary courses in Gorakhpur. He recently asked my advice on the matter and my suggestion was obvious-’Academy of Culinary Arts , Bangalore’.

I think we’re lucky, really lucky because we live in a civilized and urban world where nearly everything we wish to eat can be easily delivered to our doorstep using an app. The saying “No one knows a man better than his grocer” may well have been usurped by “no one knows a man better than his food delivery app”. Consider also that talented chef’s today are experimenting and creating Indian haute cuisine in an attempt to command respect globally. Such cuisine is truly Indian but when presented looks identical to the highest quality French cuisine . Chefs are pushing boundaries and opening boutique restaurants where Indian favourites like butter chicken aren’t even on the menu. At such restaurants, the traditional Indian naan is being served stuffed with blue cheese which at times leads first-time diners to inform the chef that the cheese in the naan is spoiled! Yet undeterred, Indian chefs continue to push the boundaries of Indian cuisine. But while the lifestyles of us big city dwell...

All About The Fine Art Of Baking

This existence is fleeting and if one had to hold it by the reigns, the task would be as humongous as Hercules, moving the mountain. Yet as a part of human nature, we are prone to test our waters and perseverance, to achieve the unthinkable. And such is our hunger for life that it surpasses every other aspect of existence- we are beasts guided by the fancies of our senses. With eyes we view our acquisitions, with ears we pick up the cues to safeguard ourselves, through nose, we guide ourselves out of unpleasantness and through skin we comfort ourselves of this existence. But wait……..aren’t we missing something? Oh yes- the tongue. The organ that houses all the nerve endings, connected to the finer things in life- including baked goodies.
