Scott was then selected to train abroad in the Black Forest of Germany with award winning Chef Karl-Josef Fuchs at Hotel Romantik Spielweg; learning skills such as cheese making, butchery, and a gamut of other culinary applications. Upon returning stateside Scott began a four-year stint running Luke Brasserie on St. Charles Avenue in New Orleans.
