The salary of chefs is hard to say, but it should be based on the average salary theory of local society, such as the gap between coastal areas and inland areas, the gap between first-tier cities and second-and third-tier cities, and the gap between the number of universities. Take the canteens of colleges and universities in Shanghai as an example, the salary of chefs ranges from 2,500 to 8,500, and the average is only about 3,500 to 5,000 yuan, because the labor intensity of chefs in university canteens is light, and there are holidays and weekends.
