See Our Culinary Team in Action at ICE

The Institute of Culinary Education (ICE) had a camera crew roving around during our event there last month, and has just released a nice video showing how the Modernist Cuisine culinary team pulled together with a terrific bunch of students to wow the guests with their amazing food.

There is a minor text error in the video, so we should clarify for the record that Kyle Connaughton was the head chef of the development kitchen at The Fat Duck restaurant while Maxime was staging there. Maxime was later the head chef at Jack’s Luxury Oyster Bar, and is the head chef of our research kitchen at The Cooking Lab as well as a coauthor of the book.

ICE Hosts MC in NYC

Written by

In conjunction with Modernist Cuisine‘s whistle-stop launch tour this week, the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE) hosted a fantastic event at their Manhattan headquarters on Wednesday, March 23.

Nathan kicked off the event with a presentation, followed by a question and answer session with the attendees.

After the presentation, the group made their way to a Modernist Cuisine reception on the 14th floor. The reception featured seven tasting stations, each lead by a member of the Culinary Team.

Anjana, Johnny, and Max (who graduated with highest honors from ICE) were on hand throughout the event.

By all accounts, the event was a raging success, thanks in no small part to the outstanding facility, competent staff, and gracious hospitality provided by the Institute of Culinary Education. The Modernist Cuisine team is eternally grateful.
