The Institute of Culinary Education (ICE) is an American culinary school located in New York City, New York. Accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC), ICE offers comprehensive 6-13 month career training diploma programs in Culinary Arts, Pastry & Baking Arts, Culinary Management and Hospitality Management. The school runs one of the largest program of hands-on recreational cooking classes and wine education courses in the country, with more than 26,000 enthusiasts taking any of the 1,500 classes offered each year. ICE also hosts private hands-on cooking events such as corporate entertaining, corporate team building and closing dinners, or personal celebrations such as birthdays, rehearsal dinners, or special reunions. ==History== ICE traces its roots to 1975, when Peter Kump opened Peter Kump's New York Cooking School, one of the first culinary schools in New York City. Kump's philosophy was to concentrate on teaching cooking techniques and flavor development at a time when most other cooking schools were only teaching recipes. In 1983, Kump inaugurated a professional program to train aspiring chefs. A number of his former teachers, including James Beard, Simone Beck, Marcella Hazan and Diana Kennedy taught classes. A number of other notable chefs, including Julia Child, James Peterson, David Bouley and Jacques Pépin, were frequent guest instructors. When Kump died in 1995, the school was acquired by Rick Smilow, an entrepreneur with an interest in education and the culinary arts. After the acquisition, the school’s professional programs expanded, requiring a move to a new location in the Flatiron neighborhood of the Manhattan borough of New York City at 50 W. 23rd Street, where it then expanded twice, in 1999 and 2004, growing to 45,000 square feet over seven floors. In 1999, the older East 92nd Street facility was closed. In 2001, the school's name was changed to The Institute of Culinary Education. In 2015, the school relocated to a brand new, 74,000 square foot facility in Battery Park City that includes such amenities as the nation's first education-focused bean-to-bar chocolate lab, a hydroponic herb and vegetable garden, a culinary technology lab and a state-of-the art mixology bar. 〔http://www.ice.edu/about-us/facilities-technologies〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Institute of Culinary Education」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
