If interested in culinary arts, please only consider programs accredited by the American Culinary Federation. Please forgo those private overpriced for-profit tech schools and instead consider the much more affordable (and usually more regulated) county vo-tech school or community college as long as the program is accredited by the within the industry.
this video is a bit useless. The implication that chefs have more skills than cooks is wildly untrue. Chefs manage - cooks cook. The skills of a senior cook are usually very comparable to a chef's skills. As well, the statement that chefs hold culinary degrees and cooks dont is untrue. Both often hold the same qualifications - and culinary degrees are not required to be a chef as much as common sense and a good work ethic.
You are wrong, A cook is a person who cook, A chef knows about multitasking cooks, management, hygeine handling, Purchasing, Accounting, Marketing Strategy, Food Science and much much more thats why they hold a degree. A cook doesnt know anything buy cooking. Please, you are not in this field please search info before you comment. If not today restaurant will be over price and there will not be so many fine dinning restaurant
You are either fresh out of cooking school or you have only worked in one or two places. I happen to have been a cook for 15+ years, went to cooking school, have my trade certification as a journeyman (in the trade of "Cook" - not chef - the trade is called "cooking"), and have worked in restaurants, hotels and private homes throughout Europe and North America. Cooks are OFTEN called on to stand in for the chef ...
... which means that both chefs and cooks do share a large part of the same information. You are right that chefs do more managing than actual cooking, but most of their management skills are learned as cooks - you seem to be implying that chefs suddenly receive this information when they get their first promotion as a chef. As well, having a 'degree' is not the worldwide norm (In canada it is very rare for a chef to have a degree - although most have a diploma).
All True. Thank you for the caption.

So in the future, don't come on youtube claiming that others know nothing about cooking and aren't in the trade or I'll hand your ass to you again.
