History

The International Culinary Center was founded by Dorothy Cann Hamilton [1] in 1984 as the French Culinary Institute. [2] When the school first opened, it was visited by chef Julia Child, who reportedly arranged to have the school profiled on Good Morning America one week later. [3]

In 2020, the International Culinary Center combined with the Institute of Culinary Education, citing issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic for its closure. [2]

Locations

The International Culinary Center had two campuses, one in New York City and the other in the San Francisco Bay area. [4] The New York City location included the L'Ecole restaurant on the ground floor as well as a Culinary Theater that hosted events, forums, and lectures from graduates. [5] The International Culinary Center was also home to FCI Catering & Events, which created and catered both on- and off-premises private events. [6] Its California location opened in 2011 in Campbell, in the San Francisco Bay Area. [4] The facilities consisted of kitchens, a library, theaters, an event space and a wine tasting room. The facility was the former location of the Professional Culinary Institute. [3]
