But Barley is not the only odd man out. Witnessing and narrating these events is Horatio Benedict dePalfrey, a lawyer who has spent the past 20 years of his career papering over the questionable deeds of the secret service, mopping up after the people he calls espiocrats.

"The course value is $28,000," says school director Juan Snowden. "But the dining room profit helps knock almost $20,000 off that." Mark Erickson, the director of culinary education at C.I.A., speaks for many food educators, though, when he says, "We're more interested in students' getting good training in the restaurants than in making a good profit...
