From Culinary School to the Hype of Chef-dom

Briefly: For a number of years as an enthusiastic cook in the work-force and occasionally at home, I see the increasingly hype of celebrity chefs around me, which makes me think about what this field will become. In the following below,

CBS showed briefly on the un-glamorous side of the celebrity chef.

A phenomenon of chefs on TV in a 24 hour network creates more interest for cooking schools. Its not crack up to be when people head to these institutions. I must be nuts to tell you this right? I am not. I asked a few cooks and cooks to be that it may be glamorous to head to the culinary school to learn all the trades of the tricks and all those French vocabulary. At the end, the job that you do are long, tedious, hard and it can be rewarding if you are bound to get discovered. Or perhaps get ambitious with creativeness and some money or some connection with Oprah or Ellen or YouTube can help. Who knows?
There are some people who end up without the cook certificates and end up being famous, can you name a few on top of your head? Martha Stewart as an example. I would also say if you have a willing chef to take you on training you like Wolfgang Puck, that will be wonderful on the site work training you can ever get in real life. Being a cook, from my experience, are very rewarding, but hard work. I am not here to tell you the bad side of the cookery politics, because I think its for an apprentice to get its feet wet and error to know where you really belong to the kitchen team.
