It is anyone’s guess as to why 33 Michelin star-holding Master Chef, Alain Ducasse has chosen to develop his space ready meals of tomorrow. Maybe he now rubs shoulders with the political bourgeois that can guarantee him a seat on that trip into deep space and he wants to dine-fine on his journey. Either way, Chef Ducasse has been, is and always will continue to be the premier vanguard in the culinary world. Alain Ducasse was born in Orthez in 1956 and educated on his parents' farm in Castel-Sarrazin, two hours south of Bordeaux, in France. By the age of 12, he decided he wanted to be a cook, inspired by his grandmother's skill. He began an apprenticeship at the Pavillon Landais restaurant in Soustons, near Biarritz, four years later and also trained at the Bordeaux hotel school. …show more content…
Relocating to the Côte d'Azur, Mr Ducasse became chef of the restaurant at the Hotel Juana in Juan-les-Pins where he was awarded two Michelin stars in 1985. Hotel de Paris approached Chef Ducasse two years later with an offer to take over the gloriously ornate Louis XV restaurant. When Mr Ducasse moved his Parisian restaurant into the sumptuous Hôtel Plaza Athénée in 2000, the Michelin Guide graced it with its highest accolade after it had been open less than five months. In 2006, he was awarded three stars for his restaurant at the Essex House, making him the first chef ever to together run three three-starred establishments. As history displays, all pioneers tend to cut against the grain of the norm and embrace new attitudes of innovation and development.

Chef Ernesto DeBlasi was only 16 years old when he discovered he had a real passion for cooking. He is excited about getting up every morning to create interesting dishes.
Because of passion with cooking and dream to be a chef, I have read a lot of cookbooks, regional culinary books and books about famous chefs, some of them are interesting but none of them was attracted to me the most. Normally, I just found some my favorite recipes in such books. However, “Letters to a young chef”, a book contains a collection of letters which Chef Daniel Boulud wrote to Alex Lee whom worked alongside Daniel for ten years as a passionate young cook, truly brings me desire to make my dream come true as much as help me to broaden my knowledge about culinary arts.
The purpose of Jonathan Edwards in delivering this famous sermon, “Sinners in the hands of an Angry God” is to persuade his listeners to turn to Christ before it was too late. He used fear to appeal his audience by showing them the image of hell and how God was angry at them. In the beginning of the sermon, Jonathan Edwards depicted an image of hell by using loaded words, such as “glowing flame of the wrath of God” and “Hell’s wide gaping mouth open”, in order to throw fear into his audience. He also told his audience how God was angry at them and how they were deserved to go to hell by using repetition to emphasize the wrath of God and also using simile to compare the wrath of God to “the fiery floods.” He also describes the sinners as “a
Once upon a time there were 2 brothers, Francis French Fry, The King of France, and his illegitimate brother Bash Mashed Potatoes.

When was the last time you and your family gathered around the dining room table and enjoyed a home cooked meal made by your mom or dad? It’s been a while hasn’t it? Is it because everyone’s too busy, or because your parents don't cook as often anymore and rely on take-out or one of those frozen dinners you pick up at the your nearest store. By the looks of it one can say that cooking might be coming to an end, and this generation no longer cares about cooking like people did back in the days when the “THE FRENCH CHEF” first appeared on television in 1963. In the reading, “ The End Of Cooking”, the author; Michael Pollan, writes about how cooking is no longer practiced in many American homes.

If a respectable mother is exclusive of her sexuality, gender non-conforming lesbian mothers already exist as illegitimate parents. The heterosexual matrix instils the notion that gender non-conformity marks sexuality – more specifically, non-heterosexuality. Female bodies stand antithetical to masculinity (Moody 2011). The subtleties of Stef and Nic’s masculinity mark their lesbianism in contrast to Lena and Jules femme because without the slight masculinity, Lena and Jules’ “lesbianism disappears, or, more accurately, never appears in the first place” (Martin 1996). This is perhaps why the characters all lean toward femininity. While the productions allow room for lesbianism, it is what Roseanne Kennedy refers to as an “absent presence” (Suk Gersen 2009, 513).

The study begins by explaining how much the residents of Gourmand love good food. They love food so much that that over time, a commission of distinguished chefs had decided that not any one should be capable of opening up a restaurant. If a restaurant was to be open, a chef would have to have 21 years of training, attend a prestigious school, and obtain a license to become a chef. These guidelines would ensure that when a resident would go to a restaurant, the food would be good. The first-class quality of food consequently rose the prices of restaurant meals to become very expensive.
The book is highly informative and educational, and as Michael Ruhlman wrote I could feel his learned passion for the craving to become a cook. He did the greater part of the course, both preparing to be a gourmet expert and expounding on it as a writer. Ruhlman learned the fundamentals of cooking stocks, roux, vegetables, and sauces; also, he gained the experience of working the front of the house by waiting tables. Most importantly, he gained the knowledge of the meaning of being a chef to become a leader within the industry. You were expected to know the answers to all the questions in the Culinary Institute of American (CIA), and know why things happen the way they do. As chef Pardus would add, “you better know how to do it” (35).
This paper evaluates the relationship between the mild to severely mentally ill and substance abuse. Substance abuse is often seen in adolescents and adults, whether they are mentally ill or not. Mental illness and substance abuse is more commonly known as a dual diagnosis. Often times, the treatment for this particular diagnosis is harder to treat than if each condition were treated on its own. Early treatment of dually diagnosed disorders may be a prevention strategy to end future problematic behaviors. The combination of substance abuse and mental illness can be due to many different factors. Many people often deny the association between substance abuse and mental illness, and believe that one can’t trigger the other. There are multiple theories that explain the relationship between the two disorders. This essay will also provide statistical research information that shows the substance use of a normal person and that of a person with mild to severe mental illness.
