My Brother GabrielMy Interesting Relative Essay

Ms. A. Rodriguez

I have a younger brother named Gabriel. He is five years younger than me.

He is my most interesting relative. I say this because Gabriel chased his dream to become a chef and actually did it.

When he was in high school, he was unsatisfied. He dropped out and got his GED.

He went to Lehman College and studied Anthropology, but he was still unhappy.

Even at his older age he decided to

follow his dream .

He transferred to Johnson and Wales University to study Culinary Arts.

At J.W.U. he worked to support himself as a bartender and a waiter.

He went to Germany, France, Switzerland and Spain to study wine.

Gabriel graduated with an associate’s degree and then completed his bachelor’s degree in Culinary

Arts and Food Service Management.

He knows how to match wine with food. He knows about nutrition and how to manage a restaurant.

He is now an assistant manager of a French/Vietnamese fusion restaurant in the SoHo area of Manhattan.
