Think that Texas could be the place to improve your cooking skills and career? You're right. Texas definitely has a big personality when it comes to its food. Chili, Tex-Mex, and barbecue are easily pegged as a holy trinity of Texas foods, and the infamous chicken-fried steak is heart-stopping delicious. But these days, there’s something new in town. Building upon these staples, Texas’ position as beef country, and the state’s diverse residents and influences, a new wave of chefs are improving the old and innovating the new. Illustrating this is the cowboy-cooking-turned-gourmet “nouveau Texas cooking, ” menus featuring locally-sourced ingredients, sushi houses, upscale Italian and French restaurants, and scores of food trucks serving a diverse array of ethnic foods. Want to get in on the action? Culinary schools in Texas are great resources for honing skills before joining this exciting culinary scene.
Texas Culinary Schools and Restaurant Sector
Texas residents and visitors love good food, and Texas’ restaurants correspondingly have a strong presence in the state’s economy. In 2010, the National Restaurant Association registered 37, 765 restaurants in the state. Texas restaurant profits in 2012 are projected to register $38.4 billion in sales. Additionally, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ 2011 data lists Texas as one of the top states for chef and head cook employment levels; the same data shows that annual average earnings for Texas chefs and head cooks came to $46, 840. Overall, success in the restaurant sector takes drive, skill, and perhaps a bit of luck. Although a degree is not needed when seeking restaurant jobs, culinary schools can teach valuable skills. So get started on making that dream career a reality, be it in baking and pastry, culinary arts, or restaurant management. Check out the list of culinary schools in Texas to find the programs that are right for you.

No Cost of living
by MidwestRick This article appeared in a Las Vegas newspaper talking about Forest Park in St. Louis. Forest Park is located in the center of the St. Louis city limits-sort of like Central Park in NYC.
Compare the amenities mentioned in the article with Golden Gate Park, and compare the prices for admission between Golden Gate Park attractions and Forest Park.
And then, to round out your understanding, realize that St. Louis was settled by disenfranchised Europeans that were shut out of cultural institutions that were only offered to the wealthy elite. To prevent that, as St. Louis was established, the early citizens made a point that many cultural and artistic institutions would be provided to the public in perpetuity at no cost
