Cambro Eats Episode 7 – Interview with Jacquy Pfeiffer of the French Pastry School

June 4, 2018 Felix Bazgan 00:23:55

This week’s episode spotlights Chef Jacquy Pfeiffer, President and Co-Founder of the French Pastry School in Chicago.

With the simple goal of training much-needed pastry chefs, the French Pastry School was launched. Since its start, the School has become a mainstay of the culinary hub in Chicago.

In this episode, Chef Jacquy details his early interest in baking, followed by years of international culinary experience.

He also reveals what it was like being a central figure in the 2010 documentary Kings of Pastry. It followed Chef Jacquy through the grueling process of the Meilleurs Ouvriers de France – a nationwide skills-examination for the highest accolade in France.

Add to that a best-selling cookbook, “The Art of French Pastry,” and we had a lot to cover in a podcast. Please check out the links below.

On the show this week, we interviewed James Wright, the Food Service Manager at the Orange County Rescue Mission. While you may be familiar with various outreach programs, nationally or locally, from housing to feeding, the OC Rescue Mission, is a rather comprehensive, intesnsive 2-3 year program designed to really prepare those accepted for life-long success.

Like with most outreach programs, it begins with food.

In this interview, James discussed how their approach to foodservice, including donations, working with volunteers and on-site staff really dispels many preconceived notions.

The impact of the OC Rescue Mission in Orange County cannot be understated.
