Current Events > I'm more conviced I want to change my career into cooking/food

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm 35 and I'm in health care. But my passion is food and flavors.

I just don't know what step to take. There are plenty. Steps I've thought of is:

Get a chef's education, go up the ladder the classic way.
Start a youtube channel as a hobby and hope for recognition.
Invest in a food truck.
Apply to Swedish MasterChef
Become a food critic
Invest in some of my unique business ideas in cooking.
More I can't remember atm.

I'm super professional in health care and I'm great at it, but it's not my real passion. I want to be creative, make people happy with my creations.
My strenght in cooking is my sense of taste, I still have LOADS of techqicies to learn but I can nail the balance of flavors very well, so I want really focus on flavors.

Just not sure how to start this career.

I can see it, you always post your mean meals

Food truck is probably the easiest option. Not sure how the swed's enjoy food trucks though, let alone adventurous ones.

---

Can you just get a job as a chef in a rinky dink restaurant?

---

Going by your posting here, you should

---

Also be careful about turning your passion to be a career.

---

I think you should do all of those things.

If you have money to invest, investing in a food truck with somebody who has experience would be good.

I would also recommend working in a kitchen at a restaurant as well if you don't have experience already.

I think the YouTube thing would be a good fit for you based on your posts here.

It's getting more and more attention here, but it's pretty seasonal and location matters a lot.

Yeah no thanks, maybe only for learning oppertunity and experience but I would not enjoy it much since my passion is more about seeing the people I serve. I also want to inspire other people into cooking.

Sadly I have no assets to invest.
