Culinary Student Brought To Tears By Scholarship Surprise & Meeting Her Chef Idol

Alyssa had been in culinary school for 3 weeks when she suffered multiple strokes. Today, she's almost fully recovered and we had 2 big surprises for her.

It's awesome to see that Alyssa Rosenthal: is cured from the blood clot, back at Johnson and Wales University to get her culinary degree, being on the Rachael Ray show and meeting her culinary idol Emeril Lagasse. It was so nice of Rachael Ray and Emeril Lagasse to give Alyssa a special scholarship for her tuition.

Rachel, Emeril, and all others involved ... I don't know how you find these kinds of stories. But thank you so much for getting involved and helping financially, inspirationally, and personally. Y'all are amazing❤️🙏🏼❤️

This is what makes some of those celebrity chef's special. They go kut of their way for education. There is no substitute for a good education regardless of how you achieve that knowledge.

The smile on Emeril's face is one of a proud fatherly figure.

She was thinking “have they never seen someone crack an egg?”

[@tonkatrucker]

Honestly can say, that I've never cried while watching a cooking show before... even if they're cutting onions. Oh well.

[@cats0182]

But, is she under medical care to find out why she had the strokes and either cure the condition or at least reduce the likelihood of future episodes.?

[@FreakinFred08]

Finding out your child is in the hospital is NOT the worst news a parent can get. It’s finding out that your child wants to be a DJ. Sorry. I just wanted to make you guys laugh after this cry fest. Forgive me.

[@wswillett]

Looks like she has been testing alot of food....eat a salad honey

[@teokoitutaoro7850]
