Rochelle Huppin is an American chef, restaurateur and small business owner with projects based in Chicago, Illinois, and Culver City, California. After graduating from The Culinary Institute of America (CIA) in 1987, Huppin founded (Chefwear, Inc )., a company that provides culinary apparel to the hospitality industry, in 1990 〔http://rochellehuppin.com/about〕 Huppin was one of the founding partners and Executive Pastry Chef at beacon: An Asian Cafe, before it closes its doors to the public in 2011.〔http://www.beacon-la.com/bios-rochelle.php〕 ==Biography== A native of Spokane, Washington, Huppin once dreamed of moving to Paris, France to explore her love of cooking and the culinary arts. After high school, her parents suggested that she attend a 4-year university in the United States before enrolling in a culinary school. With her parents advice in mind, Huppin attended the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and graduated in 1984 with a Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Languages. Post-graduation from UCLA, Huppin enrolled in the CIA in Hyde Park, New York, which was spurred by a part-time stint working at the Hotel Bel-Air during her senior year at UCLA.〔http://rochellehuppin.com/about〕 Huppin excelled at the CIA and graduated with honors in 1987 with an advanced degree in culinary arts and went on to specialize in pastry.〔http://www.foodislife.org/cia-alumni-profiles/rochelle-huppin-87-founder-and-president-of-chefwear/〕 While in culinary school, Huppin found the need for more flattering and comfortable uniforms for the kitchen. She designed a pair of 100-percent cotton pants for herself, which was different than the usual polyester pants that were issued every year. This idea continued to grow, and in 1990, Huppin founded (Chefwear, Inc ), a company that features contemporary chef clothing. As the company continued to grow, Huppin stepped away from the kitchen for good in 1992 to focus on its current and future successes.〔http://www.foodislife.org/cia-alumni-profiles/rochelle-huppin-87-founder-and-president-of-chefwear/〕 Over the years, Huppin has become a prominent woman in the industry. This was made clear when she was elected President of the (Women Chefs and Restaurateurs ) organization in 2011. She also is an avid supporter of The James Beard Foundation, Les Dames d'Escoffier, the American Culinary Federation, and the International Association of Culinary Professionals.〔http://rochellehuppin.com/about〕 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「Rochelle Huppin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
