It's difficult to say exactly what classical cuisine is. In Europe each country will have a range of dishes many of which may have had their origins in the kitchens of the aristocracy. So Italy has a classical cuisine as does Spain and Portugal and so on. In France the classical cuisine was catalogued and systematised by the great 19th century chef Escoffier in his book "la Repertoire de la Cuisine" and it was the dishes in this that became the standard repertoire of the restaurants of the luxury hotels of the period. Today many of these dishes are over-elaborate for the modern taste and they have been displaced to a degree by a French "Classical" cuisine which derives from simpler bourgeois cooking which reflects the sort of food you might have been served in a French bourgeois home that had a permanent cook or the food you might have been served in the home of a prosperous country landowner.

Is it necessary to understand classical cuisine before going into any other type of cuisine in the culinary world?
While it is not absolutely necessary to understand Classical, or Haute Cuisine before going on to other cuisines, it is highly beneficial. I can honestly say that although I am primarily a Caribbean chef, my training and living in France has certainly contributed greatly to my understanding of food and it's proper preparation. It has made me into a much better chef that I would have been otherwise. May I suggest that you keep on your bookshelf a copy of "Larousse Gastrnomique", and consult it often.

What is the uniqueness of French cuisine from other cuisine?
Traditional French cuisine is reputed to be a fat cuisine. This is of questionable truth, certainly not generally true for modern French cuisine, and certainly never was a unique aspect of French cuisine. Other aspects of French cuisine include its diversity, inventiveness, or the nation's passion with its cuisine, none of which is unique to French cuisine. Both, those attributes might be cited as characteristics of French cuisine. Any region's cuisine evolves with disregard of political boundaries. Adjacent countries will almost always share many of the characteristics with a specific country's traditional cuisine, rendering any claim of "traditional cuisine of country X" questionable. For example, the cuisine in the south-west of France is very similar to northern Spanish cuisine, while eastern French cuisine shares similarities with German, Swiss and Italian cooking.
