I am considering a new career as a chef.
I would like to be a line cook working on edible art and eventually run my own kitchen.
Does anyone knows which is a better culinary school or if there is another one, local, that is better?
I am stuck in Dallas, and I know the schools in Houston and Austin are better, but my current career is here.
Any information or advice would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!
I would add that I am planning on moving to New York in about 5 years and want to get started here in Dallas on my chef career. I figure I can start my education and career here and continue on with better education in New York.

First – if either of these have sister schools in Houston or Austin – then go with that one. You never know what happens in life and may get to transfer – never say never right?
If no sister schools – then go for the Art Institute. My husband got his degree from the Art Institute and has proven to be a value in his career.

Sorry, Can’t help you in Dallas.
However, I too am starting school, Le Cordon Bleu in Las Vegas.
I live in Alaska and am going to leave my husband and 2 children for the duration to make my dream happen.
There are jobs in Houston & Austin. I think you should go to the city where you can get the best education, even if it means a change of life style for a while.
