What qualifies someone as a professional chef? Can you call yourself one without going to culinary school?
>>
>>21943555
A chef creates recipes and manages a kitchen, a cook follows recipes.

you have to get a bunch of tattoos, including a chef knife or a cleaver or a whisk or something, and then swear at everybody for no discernible reason

Grace's autism is so endearing.
>Can you call yourself one without going to culinary school?
No, you're just a cook

>No, you're just a cook
So going to culinary school matters more than what you actually do?
>>
>>21943695
Yes. Now get your ass back on the line, Paco. ¡Ándale!

In my country you can call yourself a chef is you have chef in your job title but for immigration purposes you need specific education to be a chef.
Idk why America seems to have a model where everyone is a line cook except the head chef, maybe they might have a sous chef as well.

wow she's beautiful

You, as the OP, professionally suck cocks, but you didn't go to school for it. What's the difference?

I'll call myself professor for schooling you fools for all I care
Call yourself whatever you want

>>21943555
when i was in the industry it was the head cook who set the menu for meal service, dinner specifically, and then oversaw the service. a sous chef was also considered a "real" chef. that's why a guy opening a restaurant and making himself the head chef was looked down upon but i guess by the standard of the time he was technically a chef

>>21943555
hag!

>>21943555
if your job title includes the word 'chef', you're a chef.

To me it’s a certain set of standards (nothing reheated, takes pride in their work and work environment, makes food that tastes good)
>>
>>21943555
>What qualifies someone as a professional chef?
you get a job being paid and the title has "chef" in it.
>>
I didn't go to cooking school, I went to cook

>>21943555
n-n-no I c-c-c-cant do that

What's the difference between a line cook and a chef?
>>
>>21946579
chef is in charge of the kitchen the line cook works in.
>>
>>21946636
Is the chef still a chef if all he does is scheduling since the menu and ordering is handled by the owner?
>>
>>21943555
>What qualifies someone as a professional chef?
Working as a chef in some restaurant.

The term "professional" only means that they are paying you to do it as a job.
>>
>>21946658
yes but only if he buys a food truck and travels around the country with john leguizamo
>>
Why are most professional chefs overweight?
>>
>>21943555
Getting paid to run a kitchen
>>
>>21949008
most chefs I've seen appear to be of healthy weight. you sound like you form your opinions about the world from cartoons.
