Chefs and Restaurant Owners Call to Stop Seafood Fraud Chefs and Restaurant Owners Call to Stop Seafood Fraud As chefs and restaurant owners, we are committed to serving seafood that protects our oceans, our wallets and our health. Yet as more seafood is imported into the Unites States, our fish follows an increasingly complex path from fishing vessel to plate, increasing the risk of fraud each step of the way and making it more difficult for us to make eco-friendly choices. Despite growing concern about where our nation’s seafood comes from, chefs, restaurant owners and consumers are routinely given little or no information about the fish they purchase. We rely on our purveyors to supply us with high quality, safe, legal and honestly labeled seafood. Unfortunately, the information that travels with each fish is often limited. Recent studies have found that seafood may be mislabeled as often as 25 to 70 percent of the time for popular species like red snapper, wild salmon and Atlantic cod, disguising fish that are less desirable, cheaper or more readily available. With about 1,700 different species of seafood from all over the world now available in the U.S., it is unrealistic to expect chefs and restaurant owners to be able to independently and accurately determine that the fish they are getting is actually the one they paid for. We should be able to tell our customers, without question, what they are eating as well as where, when and how it was caught. We believe that robust traceability standards are needed for all fish sold in the U.S. – both domestic and imported. As food industry leaders, we call on the U.S. government to require that seafood is traceable in order to prevent seafood fraud and keep illegal fish out of the U.S. market. The U.S. government has an opportunity to set standards that ensure consumers are not being cheated. By tracing seafood from the fishing vessel to the dinner plate, we can have more confidence in the food we serve. With your help, we can continue to make decisions that not only please our customers, but also help protect our oceans.

  • Moving Up:Turning a Line Cook Into a Sous-Chef
    9/23/2015 Moving Up:Turning a Line Cook Into a Sous-Chef http://www.restaurantowner.com/members/2073print.cfm Moving Up:Turning a Line Cook Into a Sous-Chef by Joe Abuso Developing your current staff is one of the most important and smartest things that you, or any restaurateur, can do. Finding good people is hard enough to begin with, and keeping them around can sometimes be even harder. One of the easiest ways to attract the kind of workers you need is to be able to promise that the position you're offering them is not a stagnant, dead-end proposition. One way to keep them on your team is to make good on that promise. The best personnel want to progress through their careers by being given the opportunity to learn, grow and take on more and varied responsibilities. Hiring from within to fill midlevel management positions has many advantages over bringing in new people: You already know that they are reliable and get along with the rest of the crew; they understand the company culture, product and expectations; it's good for overall morale to see that hard work is rewarded; and lower training and administrative costs are some of the biggest. Of course, if you haven't been successfully grooming your entry-level workers for bigger and better things, you won't have the option to promote a current employee rather than placing a want ad, culling résumés and being (not always pleasantly) surprised at who walks through the door for an interview. The position of sous-chef or assistant kitchen manager Hiring from within to fill midlevel is one of the most important and common slots for a “management positions has many restaurateur to have to fill.
