Culinary Students Have Plenty of Options in Ohio


	Culinary Students Have Plenty of Options in Ohio by BJ Fairfax CulinaryEd Columnist August 06, 2007 If you're considering enrolling in an Ohio culinary school or culinary program, you're probably just as interested in activities outside of school as you are in the culinary schools classroom. There's plenty to do in Ohio, and fortunately, several events center on food, allowing you to extend your education beyond the classroom. Attending Culinary Schools in Ohio Far more than just another Midwestern state, Ohio serves as a link between the Northeast and the Midwest, boasting 312 miles of coastline on the southern shore of Lake Erie. With a population of over 11 million people, Ohio's population enjoys a wide array of culinary programs. Ohio boasts three metropolitan areas with populations of over a million people--Columbus at around 1.7 million, Cincinnati at around 2.1 million, and Cleveland at around 2.2 million. There are five additional metropolitan areas in Ohio with populations of more than 500,000 residents: Akron, Canton, Dayton, Toledo, and Youngstown. Students who attend Ohio culinary schools in or near these areas should find plenty of options when it comes to recreation--and getting a great education from local culinary programs. Happenings in Ohio With so many metropolitan areas, six professional sports franchises, and miles of coastline along Lake Erie, finding fun in Ohio shouldn't be hard for students of the state's culinary schools. In addition, many food-focused festivals take place each year, including the Taste of Cincinnati in May, the Banana Split Festival in June, the National Hamburger Festival in July, and the Sweet Corn Festival in August. If you're considering culinary programs in Ohio, dive in and get an education with plenty of fun on the side.
