Culinary Arts 2
Resources & Materials
To my fellow ProStart instructors and students;
Please note that this site is a work in progress to correlate with the NRAEF's Foundations of Restaurant Management and Culinary Arts, Level Two, 2nd Edition. I strongly recommend purchasing these textbooks/accompanying resources as they are well written with beautiful graphics/tutorials.
Due to timing, I am not typically able to complete all of the chapters every year but the materials I have are listed below in order of chapters.
