Our Residential Program: NYC Cooking Camp
The vision for our programs is that our residential students enjoy premier housing with luxury amenities located in amazing facilities near to where we actually want to be, period.
For our residential students, we are out to create an environment where all of these like-minded culinary students can have a blast. We call this program life-accelerated because of the pace and power of the program. We often see in the surveys that among their favorite things about camp is chilling in the dorm, ordering a pizza at 9:30 and watching shows and hanging out with each other. It is very natural, and we train our staff to include each and every student in the fun times.
