Culinary Arts & Hospitality

In SAA’s culinary arts and hospitality programs, students learn from locals and professional chefs alike how to prepare traditional dishes from the countries they are visiting.

From simple to extravagant, students will learn how to prepare the most definitive dishes from the world’s most famous cuisines. Dishes in cooking lessons are prepared in a variety of settings, from the classroom to local farms, where ingredients will be sourced for the recipes.

To learn about local specialties and production methods, students can tour factories, vineyards, markets, bakeries, farms, and more.

Studying culinary arts abroad allows students to perfect their skills while being immersed in the local culture. Receiving lessons directly from masters living in the home of the cuisine will greatly improve students’ understanding of the finer details of the flavors and recipes that make up the traditional dishes from the country they are visiting, which can often have subtle regional variations not taught internationally.
