South Dakota is immensely proud of its rich heritage, and all through the state, local specialties are served in restaurants to natives and visitors. Traditional fare includes the state bread, fry bread, as well as the state dessert, kuchen (coffee cake), corn balls, and pumpkin soup, just to name a few.

With a multi-million dollar tourism industry showing no signs of slowing down, hotels and restaurants are major players in the South Dakota economy, making it a great time to start a culinary education here.
