The International Culinary Center (originally known as the French Culinary Institute) was a private for-profit culinary school from 1984 to 2020 headquartered in New York City, New York. The facilities included professional kitchens for hands-on cooking and baking classes, wine tasting classrooms, a library, theater, and event spaces. The school merged with the Institute of Culinary Education in 2020.
History
The International Culinary Center was founded by Dorothy Cann Hamilton[1] in 1984 as the French Culinary Institute.[2] When the school first opened, it was visited by chef Julia Child, who reportedly arranged to have the school profiled on Good Morning America one week later.[3]
In 2020, the International Culinary Center combined with the Institute of Culinary Education, citing issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic for its closure.[2]
Locations
The International Culinary Center had two campuses, one in New York City and the other in the San Francisco Bay area.[4] The New York City location included the L'Ecole restaurant on the ground floor as well as a Culinary Theater that hosted events, forums, and lectures from graduates.[5] The International Culinary Center was also home to FCI Catering & Events, which created and catered both on- and off-premises private events.[6] Its California location opened in 2011 in Campbell, in the San Francisco Bay Area.[4] The facilities consisted of kitchens, a library, theaters, an event space and a wine tasting room. The facility was the former location of the Professional Culinary Institute.[3]
