Chef Sarkis Takvoryan
Volunteers To Cook For Dickranian School Students

Los Angeles, December 8, 2009 – Monday December the 7th’s luncheon menu at
TCA Arshag Dickranian School was a special treat for the students,
teachers and staff. It was a pleasant sight seeing students from Pre-K to
12th grade lined up at the kitchen counter of the Walter and Laurel
Karabian Hall to be served the Philly Steak Sandwich deliciously prepared
by the visiting young chef Sarkis Takvoryan, who attended Dickranian
School.

This was Sarkis’s second visit to cook at the TCA Arshag Dickranian
School. `The PTO kitchen committee members work tirelessly preparing and
serving the daily lunches for the students. I decided to volunteer
cooking for them because I would like to give something back to this
school,’ said chef Takvoryan, `I also wanted to be a role model for the
students and perhaps encourage some of them to pursue exploring the art of
cooking.’

Having found his niche in cooking after completing 11th grade at ADS,
Takvoryan enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu Paris culinary school and completed
the program within a year specializing in French, Italian and Middle
Eastern cuisines. At present he works at the Marquis Restaurant in
Glendale, California, where he plans having his own `finger food’ lounge.

Located at 1200 North Cahuenga Blvd., Los Angeles, the TCA Arshag
Dickranian Armenian School is a federally tax exempt, Pre-K to 12th grade
private educational institution. For more information visit
