Introduction: Texas Culinary Academy is an outgrowth
of a Chef apprenticeship program that was sanctioned by the American
Culinary Federation in 1981. In pursuit of excellence as a premier
educational facility, the school concentrated on curriculum content,
educational objectives, and student success. Program excellence
triggered enrollment increases which eventually lead to a move to
larger quarters in 1989. In September 1999, the name was officially
changed to Texas Culinary Academy. The program at TCA blends classical
French cuisine with American inventiveness in a fast-paced 15-month
period. At TCA, we know you need more than theory and technique.
We offer students practical hands-on approaches to innovative methods
and classical techniques. Students will be introduced to more than
25 foreign cuisines combined with a cross-cultural spirit. Our talented
faculty offers more than 400 years of industry experience along
with a true passion for the culinary field. TCA students learn from
caring and experienced instructors. Click Here to Request Free Information.
