You will learn how to process and apply advanced cooking techniques to whole ducks, lobster and salmon.  Cuisines from all over the world will be part of the course with an emphasis on the techniques and the understanding of them.  Create preparations you’ve seen in restaurants and always wanted to know how to make like risotto, spatzle, polenta, hollandaise and artisanal hand shaped pastas.  After this course your dinner parties will never be the same.
