I can’t believe it’s the end of my first term at Le Cordon Bleu, Paris. Yesterday, was our last demonstration at school that was made memorable with a fire drill and some champagne in plastic cups. From cutting four fingers all at once while slicing fennel and learning the perfect soufflé with my favourite chef to scoring the perfect 100 in my theory exam, I’ve made some pretty happy memories for myself.
Because I like buying food souvenirs to mark occasions, I bought myself an Eiffel tower shaped cookie cutter from Mora and a wide spatula from E. Dehillerin (but this is mostly because I might need it for my practical exam on Friday – and some luck, too!)
