KAMR LOCAL 4'S SHARDAE CAUGHT
UP WITH THE STUDENT CHEFS TO

SUCCESS...
(SHARDAE LARAE
(FAST SOT "Patience *laughs*)
THAT'S THE MAIN INGREDIENT
"CHEF" MARIO HERNANDEZ SAYS HAS
HELPED HIM LEAD THE PALO DURO
HIGH SCHOOL'S CULINARY TEAM FOR
THE PAST SEVEN YEARS.
(CHEF MARIO HERNANDEZ,CULINARY
COACH, PALO DURO HIGH SCHOOL: "A
lot of patience just to adjust
for students and different
teaching styles.)
AND THIS YEAR ... WITH A TEAM OF
FIVE STUDENT CHEFS ... HERNANDEZ
IS HOPING TO SNAG A NATIONAL
TITLE FOR THE TEAM.
BUT FIRST ... THEY'LL HAVE TO
COMPETE IN REGIONALS.
(CHEF: "The students came up
with their own recipes, that's
apart of the competition , they
actually write the recipes and
they're judge on all their
paperwork ... and make a menu)
AND THAT MENU IS A FULL-COURSE
MEAL MADE UP OF... PERFECTLY
COOKED BEEF TENDERLOINS ... AND
FILET MINION...
(MELISSA RAMIREZ, SENIOR CHEF,
PALO DURO HUGH SCHOOL We have to
pay attention to the timer, we
have a bunch of nitty gritty
things what the judges see.)
SENIOR CHEF ... MELISSA
RAMIREZ... SAYS NO MATTER HOW
CUT THROAT THE COMPETITION MAY
GET... COMMUNICATION IS ALWAYS
KEY.
(RAMIREZ: "We have to
communicate with each other a
lot since we're a small team we
have to make sure we talk to
each other so we can do good.)
AND AFTER SPENDING THREE YEARS
UNDER THE DIRECTION OF "CHEF"
... RAMIREZ SAYS THANKS TO HIM
... SHE AND OTHER STUDENTS
GRADUATE WITH AN IMPORTANT SET
OF SKILLS.
(RAMIREZ Chef is a really good
teacher, chef always gets made
at us for good reason too
cooking baking anything you do
in culinary details are key so
if you put too little of
something or too much of
something it completely ruins
the recipe so attention to
detail is important and i think
that would help me in college
and anything else i would do
even if i wasn't in culinary.")
A "RECIPE FOR SUCCESS"... THAT
GOES BEYOND THE KITCHEN...
