What is it like to get a job as a chef after graduating?

My father started to open a restaurant when I was in elementary school. It was not until I left the catering industry when I went to college due to my health.

It has been 10 years.

I have never opposed or discouraged girls who want to open restaurants.

You all have great dreams, great ideas, and dare to pursue the industry you love.

I have a friend who graduated from UCL with a master's degree in chemistry. After returning to China, he decided to work in the food industry.

Therefore, it is never too late to do anything.

What he often talks about is: It doesn’t matter whether anything is worth it or not, only whether you are willing or not.

I'm also planning to open a restaurant of my own, but I don't have the ability, technology, or funds (or I don't have a good proposal to get funds) yet.

Girl, if you want to learn cooking, then go ahead and learn it. There is not much difference in difficulty between Western and Chinese food, just like there is no difference in difficulty between chopping onions all day long and baking all day long.

However, you have to be prepared.

1. You will not have any rest during all holidays, including New Year’s Eve.

(In this regard, next Monday I will shoot a scene of a five-star hotel chef who is lonely and lonely in his thirties. I have also read the script and it is very sad.) 2. You may have been doing basic things for a long time.

After a few years of chopping onions, doing a few years of baking, etc., you may never be more than a little-known chef.

3. In some places, in the eyes of some people, your social status will not match your income at all, because China does not respect the status of chefs as much as foreign countries.

ps. For those who say that chefs are all fat, forget it. I have seen many chefs at ramen restaurants and chefs at the Great Hall of the People. Fat is not the majority, and there are even many who are thin.

As for opening a restaurant, I think you should calm down first.

Not all people can still love it and have no regrets when they turn their hobbies into work.

I watched my father go from a ramen shop on the street to a big hotel on Guijie Street.

My father lost weight from 180 pounds to 140 pounds and only had a few hours of sleep a day.

To open a restaurant, you need to find a good chef, a good location, a good idea, or a place with your own characteristics. For people like me who don’t have family inheritance skills (such as Lijia cuisine), simply opening a restaurant requires face to face to survive.

The right thing.

If you just want to leisurely open your own cafe or something like that, I'm sorry, I don't quite understand. Just pretend I didn't say anything above.

I’m not here to beat you, I’m just letting you recognize what you need to face. If you still want to pursue a career, don’t listen to other people’s advice. If you want Western food, just choose Western food, or choose a Chinese cuisine. It’s no big deal.
