      I worked at a bar for 11 years, during covid we had to shut down for like a year, owner decided to open a foodtruck during this time, me and 2 others from the bar decided to go work for him in the truck during shutdown, he ended up selling the bar after a few months, man has worked 90-100 hour weeks every week from when he opened the truck 16 months ago except for 1 week where he took 3 days off for a mini vacation, sundays are his only day off and I'd be willing to bet he doesn't take the entire day off.

      Forgot the guy's name - a Frenchman who moved to Washington DC. He was a pastry chef that turned to a head chef to owner/chef.
      FWIT pastry chef's often double on the line in smaller restaurants. They do fine, it's said, because of their precision. Line cooks can fill in for pastry chefs, but generally don't do as well.
      Edit - Michel Richard is the guy's name.

      Trust me, the video editing and the fact that she's on camera are playing with perspective.
      When she said "it's all good as long as I don't hear something break" and how she stressed over the banquet sent chills down my spine. That is a high stress environment, where the final product must be as close to perfection as possible and any sign of failure or lack of concentration gets heavily flagellated.
      You have a team of 10+ people on the line, with incredibly intricate jobs, plus a time constraint that needs to be within 15seconds of accuracy at most AND expensive as hell product.
      You can't deliver on your portion of the dish and suddenly 4 other people have to redo a whole table bc of a fuckup. Not to mention how it might affect the timing of others preparing for the next courses. I just made myself nauseous from the flashbacks.
      There aren't many chefs (in my experience) that deal with this by the actual definition of calmly.
      Edit: 9:49 gave me hope tho, big ups to her. I'd love to pick flowers and was dishes at her restaurant lmao

    I think her temperament is the main reason she's so effective as a head chef. Obviously she has the culinary skills as well, but the ability to step back and delegate while remaining calm is definitely more important. Chefs that excel at everything but are impossible to work with does not a good restaurant make.

      @@dylangodwin8325 It's not about poor! It's about spending money to those who deserve to and who value generosity! Come to Greece to learn what real food, generosity and generous portions mean which are way much better than the little cubes you see here! But i bet you don't know because as a butter boy that you are you hung out with your other butter buddies and choose to judge people by their pockets and where they spend them at fancy restaurants. And you use the word ''poor'' like it's a sickness. I know types like you they are millions out there who value money above quality and ethos. That is how hollow you are as a person and you prove it well by your comment! I prefer to spend my money to chefs and even luxury restaurants who serve real portions and not tiny girly portions, to people who respect the customer first not the pocket. But victims like you who leave in their own bubble choose to pay chefs 200% more than what the real food's value actually is and you think that you pay more for their skills, while they rubb their hands for the satsfaction of for more money while they give extremely less than what they receive and customers feeling hungry short afterwards. And by the way it happens that i am not poor! So before trying insulting someone that you don't even know do your homework first and then get out from your ''golden'' shell to learn what real life is and what a real man is!
