Hi, I'm new to these forums, but not to the cooking scene. I've been a cook at a local specialty restaurant for five years now, but I feel I need schooling if I were to become any better as a chef. So I've been out of high school for about two years now, and flopping all around doing whatever. Now I know I want to become a professional chef, the only problem is where should I go? I feel like the Illinois Institute of Art in Chicago could be the right place to go, but some people I talk to say, "it's too expensive", and, "not worth going into debt". I have two questions: one, (I live in Southwest Michigan), are there any good culinary schools in that area? and 2, are most culinary school expensive, and/or worth the money......... and 3, does anyone have anything to say about the Illinois Institute of Art? Please help me out because I would really like to get into the professional cooking world, thanks in advance.
