Over time, this white hat became the symbol and symbol of the chef. Up to now, chefs all over the world have generally put on this white hat. The white top hat has become a working hat for chefs to maintain food hygiene.
Chefs all over the world may wear different work clothes, but they wear the same hats, all white high hats. Wearing this hat is good for hygiene and can prevent the chef's hair and dandruff from falling into the dish. However, the chef who first wore this hat was not from the perspective of hygiene, but as a symbol.
Now, almost all chefs in the world wear this kind of hat. Chefs can distinguish the technical level by the level of working hat they wear. The more experienced, the higher the level, the higher the height of the hat, which can be divided into chef hat, chef hat and chef hat. The number of hat folds is also very particular, which is proportional to the height of the hat. Chef's hat is generally about 29.5 cm high. Both the chef and the chef wear this kind of hat. Chef's hat is basically the same as chef's hat, but the height is much lower and the cap pleats are less. A hat worn by ordinary chefs. Chef's hat basically has no height and few wrinkles. A hat worn by a kitchen worker. The more wrinkles on the chef's hat, the higher the grade. The chef wears a kitchen towel instead of a tie. Its color varies with different grades. Generally, chefs wear red; The supervisor wears black; Ordinary employees wear white. Because of the different management modes, the colors of each hotel are different! In some places, kitchen towels are called triangular towels. Generally speaking, western chefs wear a lot. In the 1990s, they were generally white. Now some hotels divide colors in order to distinguish grades and departments. Every hotel is different. Take Shangri-La Hotel as an example. The top of their triangular scarf is white, and the apprentices are of various colors (to distinguish departments). The top chefs in Holiday Inn wear black, and the departmental chefs wear white. The function of the triangle towel is to cover the chef's neck to avoid dirty things being seen by guests. There is also an anecdote about the triangular scarf, which was told to me by a foreigner. It is said that when a chef wants to sneeze, he can block it with a triangular towel to avoid embarrassment. More technically, when a fire breaks out, the chef can tear off the triangle and cover his mouth to escape.
