Need some advice...

So im currenty working in a casual dining restaurant (ie earls) and would like to now finally move into fine dining. I plan to be a chef, this will be my career. School right now is in limbo (still deciding on which, wouldnt mind some advice on a school either). So what im really asking is what do i do now, to get my foot in the door? Ive begun to apply at entry level positions at certain fine dining establishments and its been pretty hit or miss.

i can give you plenty advice but something you should really think about if you really really want to do this as a career is get the fuck out of vancouver and go work in asia or europe.
