Many aspiring chefs dream of the day they finish climbing the kitchen ladder and end up at the top!



For some, that could mean running their own kitchen as the Executive Chef.

Young chefs often long for the day that they are the ones that choose the menu and get the glory when someone sends compliments to the chef.

However, in the hospitality business, one must earn one’s way to the top…..

In short, becoming head-chef…..is no piece of cake!

The job of the Executive Chef sometimes requires a brutal twelve-hour day!

and lots of meetings!! Either with individuals planning banquets or vendors and bosses.

And tons of paperwork!!! The Executive Chef is responsible for all of a restaurant’s paperwork, including processing bills, staff reviews, and more.

and very little cooking…..In fact an Executive Chef usually spends less time in the kitchen than any other chef.

Burst your bubble yet?

However, if you’re the kind that prefers to sit at the helm of the ship, rather than work its engines down below the deck – then this just might be your ticket to the spotlight!

An Executive chef, gets to plan, strategise, execute and reap the rewards….

He or She gets to beam with pride, when a guest sends compliments to the chef!

So, it just might be worth the trouble …..
