On this International Chef's Day, I would like to highlight the importance of the Chef's Uniform or the Chef Coat 🧥 in a Chef's life no matter whether he/she has evolved into a different role... In my 24 years of being a part of different facets of the food industry with ITC Limited , I have been in the chef's uniform for almost every day of my life of the 15 years that I spent in ITC Hotels to an extent where it felt like my second skin ...n even today at the slightest opportunity I wear my chef coat with utmost pride ... It’s all about pride. If you have it in your profession, you will have it in your uniform, no matter what your walk of life. With the chef’s uniform, there is more at stake than just keeping the uniform clean and white. A dignified look helps generate a feeling of professionalism. As traditions go, it doesn’t get more conventional than the chef’s uniform. Every button, tie, and pocket has a storied history, dating back to the mid-19th century. Noting class, status and kitchen rank, a chef’s uniform was as important as the food served at the time, and these rigorous standards have been hard to break over the last two hundred years. Only in the last decade or so have chefs begun to push the envelope, and as retailers have produced more fashion-forward, urban-inspired looks, chefs the world over have been able to express their personality while matching their unique restaurant esthetics. It evokes an instant sense of recognition, telling both foodservice industry insiders and the public that they are in the presence of a skilled practitioner. Each element plays an important role in keeping workers safe and comfortable in a potentially dangerous environment. “Cooking requires confident guesswork and improvisation—experimentation and substitution, dealing with failure and uncertainty in a creative way.” Wishing A Very Happy International Chef's Day to all my fellow Chefs .. May your days be always filled with inspiration and creativity. May your hearts be filled as much as the stomachs of your customers. #chefs #internationalchefsday
