« I enrolled at the Hautes Etudes du Goût in order to learn more about gastronomy, the world of taste and sciences connected to the food industry.

The Hautes Etudes du Goût's course program provided me with new and surprising knowledge: the lecture on molecular gastronomy did provide a new world, the lectures given in sociology and neurophysiology were very interesting and those on the history of gastronomy made me a lot wiser than I was.

All that I learned here will be useful in one way or another in my job as the managing director of a culinary school and to the consultancy company I also work for, which only deals with food and drink.»
