Sorry for the delay!

Sorry for the delay of posts. I'm currently trying new ways to present this blog so it can look it's very best. Luckily I have quite a few people who really know what they are doing. I've even been throwing around the idea of purchasing an actual web address, only time will tell.


Take Care,Hector

Trip to Vermont!

This past September I had the amazing opportunity to visit the beautiful state of Vermont with my girlfriend Amy. We went to visit the New England Culinary Institute(NECI) in our future home of Montpelier. I must say the experience was an amazing one. The school was great and the town was like another world. The Vermonters were some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I think what surprised me the most was the size of the capitol. Having the culinary institute close at hand has really helped make it one of the greatest food towns around. We were lucky enough to dine at NECI’s Main Street Bar and Grill not once but twice. The food was super delicious. I even discovered that the school has its own garden. The students were very helpful as well. We were lucky enough to met two great students who answered our every question on the tour. To anyone out there who is thinking about visiting Vermont all I can say is GO. I believe that you will find it is like you have stepped back in in time(in a good way) Amy and I spent a total of three days in Vermont, waking up at 2am on the last to catch our bus back to the airport. All in all it was the best weekend of my life. I am surly looking forward to when I can call Montpelier my home.


Pics coming soon!

It's been a while

Sorry for the reference to a dated song but the title is the truth. I have really neglected this blog for too long. I figured that if I am headed off to culinary school in a few months I should pick it up again. Coming this July(hopefully) I will being my education at the New England Culinary Institute( neci.edu) I'm really looking forward to this and am sure that it will provide plenty for me to ramble on about and countless pictures to share. Along with that news comes more exciting news, it's almost Thanksgiving. This is by far my favorite time of the year. Make sure to check back often(no really I'm going to keep it up this time) for some cool pics and tips during this holiday season.


Cook on,Hector
