The Alvin Community College culinary arts program held it's first class in Fall 2006 as a non-credit work force education program, that offered two one year non-credit certificates. In fall 2007 we became a fully accredited culinary program offering two-one year certificates and a 2 year AAS degree. We currently offer certificate classes in the Central unit of the TDCJ, dual credit classes at Glenda Dawson high school with Pearland ISD and at the ACC main campus in Alvin, Texas. Give us a call at 281.756.3949 if you would like more information. It would be our pleasure to visit with you.

Our Mission Statement
The mission of the Alvin Community College culinary arts program is to provide our students with an affordable, practical and realistic education in a personalized learning environment where students can gain the skills required for successful entry into the global foodservice industry.
The last class in our eight class sequence is garde manger. This class uses some of all the techniques the students have previously learned and also introduces them to some new skills. As part of the class, students prepare plated salads and they learn about ice carving. The following photos show some of "ice night" and a couple of plated salads.

In the salad department the students prepared a nice Waldorf salad
followed by Casino Egg on French Salad.
The salad is composed of a poached egg, placed on top of French Salad, coated with Chaud Froid sauce.
I'll have more photos from the class in the next few days.
In the meantime: Happy Eating
