Though the students at the local Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts campus are already busy doing prep work for all the celebrity chefs appearing at this weekend's Austin Food & Wine Festival, they're also finding time to raise funds for charity.
As part of a nationwide Le Cordon Bleu initiative called Soup for Support, students and staff at the local campus will be selling homemade bowls of traditional clam chowder from a recipe developed at their sibling campus in Boston. The soup will be available for $2 in the main lobby of Le Cordon Bleu Austin. Proceeds will benefit One Fund Boston, which provides financial support for victims. The campus will also collect donations, blankets, children’s books and stuffed animals for the people of West, TX.
