MANILA, Philippines – Forget dog grooming.
Our continuing obsession with good food and fine dining has made being a chef the hot new career choice for young Filipinos wondering what to do with their lives.
With slick new restaurants opening every week, entire cable channels devoted 24/7 to food and cooking shows, reality shows like the "Iron Chef” competition and the emergence of celebrity chefs from Wolfgang Puck to Emeril, the status of the once-lowly kusinero has been elevated to the same lofty heights once reserved for the more traditional professions. Not only that, the top-ranked chefs now have the potential to earn as much as dentists and business executives - more if they open their restaurants. Next to nurses and caregivers, food professionals are also among the most in-demand for employment overseas.
Small wonder then that culinary schools are sprouting like champignons. Ten years ago you could count the number of culinary schools on one finger. Today there are at least ten in Metro Manila alone, many with international connections. Some of them charge more per semester than the top private universities: another indicator of the professional chef's new-found status.
So, should the fresh high school graduate consider cuisine as a career?
The key, many newly-established chefs agree, is passion.
“Before entering culinary school, I asked myself if I really wanted this career,” says Paolo Sia, 25, corporate chef at Unilever Foodsolutions.
