I had my final demonstration on Friday! The chef made an intricate chocolate and orange mousse cake. The practical for this demonstration is actually our final exam, so I won't have a chance to recreate the cake at Le Cordon Bleu but I will definitely try back at home. We finished off our final class together with a champagne toast, I can't believe how fast my classes went by.
I now have a lot of time off to prepare for my exam on Thursday, and all of this free time has led me to miss some American staples. I found the store "Thanksgiving" which sells imported American products like oatmeal, pop tarts, muffin mix, fluff, chips and salsa etc. The products are much more expensive than in the US but it was nice to see them! I also went with three friends from school, two Americans, and one Canadian, to "Breakfast in America", a true American Diner in Paris. The food was enormous and delicious, they even had bottomless coffee!
