American Culinary Institute is the best cooking school in America. Founded in 1946, it has a long history in the United States. Because of this, until now, the school layout is still classical and exquisite. The school was originally built in downtown New Haven, Connecticut, with a facade as big as a restaurant. 3 teachers-chef, baker, nutritionist; Only more than 50 students, mainly soldiers who came back from the battlefield, learned to cook dozens of dishes that were the most popular at that time. Perhaps because of catching up with the trend of the times, the school has developed extremely rapidly. Only in the second year, a teaching building with 40 classrooms was built outside Yale University, which was more or less decent. By 1969, the school had 1000 students, and teachers and equipment were in short supply, so the school decided to choose a new site. A year later, the school bought a teaching building with 1 50 rooms in new york Hyde Park for110,000 dollars. It took two years to build the prototype of the CIA today. After decades of development, the CIA not only has a campus covering tens of acres, but also built a branch school in gladstone, California. The CIA has an extremely elegant classical style, but it has the most modern teaching facilities. Hilton was originally a hotel company, which invested in building a large library for the college. In the library, there are also demonstration kitchens, audio-visual classrooms and photo exhibition centers. The school even has simulation classrooms of various star-rated hotels for students to operate on the spot.

The institute is worthy of the name and only recruits college graduates. The application of the school is very strict, and it is necessary to submit the medical certificate, financial aid certificate and academic certificate issued by professional doctors, pass the learning goal test, sign an agreement to live in the school, and pay the tuition fee of 300 US dollars in advance. There are various courses in the school, and some short-term vocational training has been added in recent years. Regular graduates can get a diploma equivalent to a master's degree.

The CIA has high requirements for students. I have to get up after 5 o'clock every morning, because I have breakfast at 6 o'clock 10. Before, I need to clean up my house and make myself clean and tidy. The white uniform worn by the chef should be ironed without any wrinkles. Breakfast time is only 25 minutes, and then go directly to the kitchen to prepare materials. The preparation time is nearly 1 hour, so it should be done neatly. Class begins at 8: 30, with live demonstrations and theoretical explanations. 1 15 has a 40-minute lunch, and then the whole afternoon is spent doing "homework", discussing and commenting. 18, must exercise 1 hour. After dinner at 20 o'clock, read books and take notes, and prepare the cooking plan for the next day. Go to bed at 22: 30.

CIA graduates are either in charge of famous shops, writing books, being popular hosts, or running food enterprises. Among the White House chefs, there are also many CIA graduates. In the food industry in the United States and even the world, the CIA diploma has become a golden signboard.
