In the restaurant, every chef wears a white top hat. Wearing this hat gives people a clean and hygienic feeling. This kind of hat can prevent the chef's hair from falling on the plate when cooking. At the same time, the temperature in the kitchen is relatively high, because this kind of hat has a large space and can also prevent the chef from getting too hot. But from the health point of view, the first time a chef wears a white top hat, it is regarded as a symbol.

In the Middle Ages, a war broke out in Greece, and the invaders killed everyone, but the monks were not killed. Because the temple is sacred and inviolable, people have taken refuge in the temple. On one occasion, several famous chefs fled to the monastery. To be on the safe side, they also put on the black hats of Taoist priests. The chef lives with the monks and cooks for them every day. Over time, in order to distinguish himself from a real monk, he changed his black hat into a white hat.

After the war subsided, the chefs returned to their restaurants, but they still liked to work in the kitchen with white hats. Because they are all famous chefs, chefs from other places have begun to follow suit and wear this white high hat. Over time, wearing a white top hat has become a symbol of the chef.

Many people feel fresh and curious and patronize this restaurant one after another, which makes the business of this restaurant more and more prosperous.
