I want to learn to become good at restaurant style cooking but I also want to do it on a monetary budget (not time budget)
Any suggestions of where to get started?
I just want to make the swanky stuff they make in restaurants
I used to have culinary ambition but University killed it

Elaborate or you're a retarded nigger who isn't worth helping

restaurant foods are not expensive to make unless you are trying to do meme "food science" dishes that require special tools. just learn how to cook with butter and salt and learn how to cut things evenly so you can have a good presentation

I want to cook food similar to that coming out of modern French and Italian restaurants without spending a fortune on veal

I'm not interested in using gadgets

Specifically I don't want to spend a fortune on veal in order to make enough stock to practice making dishes

go to local butchers and ask if they let you take bones for free or they might sell it for cheap

Learning to make your own pasta, pastry, etc is very cheap. Pizza is cheap. Breads of all kinds are cheap. Noodles, dumplings, pies. All cheap to make

>get gud
The advice I got was learn to slice, dice, mince, etc. and practice on carrots and potatoes.

I would add to that breaking down chicken, fish, and beef. While learning that learn wet and dry brines and seasoning combinations and stick the landing by learning poaching, searing, roasting, frying, and grilling.

Have oven and oven sheet pan
Have a stove with pan, sauce pan and a large pot.
Cutting board and mixing bowls.
You are pretty much set.

Restaurant meals are about presentation, so think hard about that.
