The CCA moved out of its grand Polk Street facilities on Friday, and things aren't looking ideal over there in culinary school land: "With only 300 students enrolled — down from a peak of over 2,000 — it became untenable to sustain two separate facilities. The SF Weekly's exposé last year about the institution's 'burnt chefs' is old news. For years already, chefs and kitchen managers (myself included) had banned CCA interns from our kitchens because of their abysmal lack of skills." Ouch. The new restaurant, Carême 350, opens on Thursday. [BAB]
