When the Chef creates their dish it can be magnificent. When they then give this dish to a cook and have the cook prepare the same dish in the exact same manner the dish can never be as magnificent. It is possible to be true to the Chef s original concept of the dish while sharing with it a piece of your own soul. So, to have the finest food prepared it is not necessary for the Chef to have their hand in everything. It is only necessary to create the finest dishes and to train as perfect as possible.
Training is key.
A true Chef should train their cooks to develop their inner art and perfect quality. This is opposed to developing the Chef s own art and quality. The excellent food and service is directly reflected upon the Chef though credit for the translation must go to the cook.
