  • 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.

  • From Pea Soup to Hors D'oeuvres: the Status of the Cook on British Merchant Ships
    From Pea Soup to Hors d'oeuvres: The Status of the Cook on British Merchant Ships Sari Mäenpää Introduction The sea-going cook has often been portrayed as a legendary figure by both contemporaries and writers of maritime fiction. For some, he was the most important — and the most interesting — figure on board: "Ship's cooks not only deserve our attention; they command it, dumbly yet imperiously."1 Yet little historical research has been done on them, even though they were one of the most established groups in the maritime labour force. At their best, they were innovative, independent, creative and lucky. At worst, their destiny was to be the most hated member of the crew — after the captain, of course. To be called the "son of a sea cook" was, according to an article in The Seaman, "in nautical circles, even more grievous an insult than to be called a soldier. He is not the man whose services are valued and from whom much is expected who acquires the cognomen of Slushie.'"2 This essay focuses on the 1906 Merchant Shipping Act and its significance in increasing the status of the cook's profession at sea. The act made it compulsory for every British vessel of 1000 gross tons or more to carry a certificated cook. Cooks could obtain their certificates by examination or exemption due to long service, which was defined as two years. For the first time, it was now officially recognised that cooking at sea required specialised skills, even if such capabilities were obtained through only a few weeks of training plus one month's service at sea in some capacity.
