Chef’s Choice

I work for a German Chef at a hotel. This particular chef believes he
is the best everything ever and can never be challenged.

One day, he got into it with an apprentice working for me claiming
that you “always put cream into a volute(sauce)” Knowing this is
false, the apprentice declares that’s not how he was taught. Chef
then grabs Escofier’s cook book (the father of modern cuisine)and
instructs the apprentice to read the recipe for Volute. When the chef
is proven wrong, he has the audacity to say “the book must be wrong.”

  1. The German Chef had to be “the guy that fired your lazy ass”

  5. Every German Chef I’ve worked with thinks they are God’s gift to the kitchen and are some of the laziest workers I’ve ever seen. The two that I currently work with have no clue how to expedite…pretty amazing!

  9. When working in a kitchen, the chef’s way is the right way; even when he’s wrong.
    If one cannot fathom this idea, they’re working in the wrong field.
    Also, I call bullshit. Someone who has underlings (sous-chef, saucier, etc.) would at least know how to spell “Velouté” correctly. You’re the dishwasher at a fancy hotel and think you know better than the chef.

  13. Fucking fancy pants. That’s why I don’t eat at fancy restaurants, all the staff are snobs. I prefer a diner or cafe, it’s not too hard to make a cheeseburger and fries.
