why are chef hats so tall?

[brainhulk]

Man bun?
garnish holder?
tool stash?
snack stash?

I meant to ask the chef last time he came to check on us but it slipped my mind

Status and visibility. I like the unstarched toque look.

 

[waffleironhead]

So they all can hide a rat under there.

 

[sdifox]

Hot air has to go somewhere

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

It's where I keep the extra spit for the non tippers.

Dangit, beat me to it!

 

[IronWing]

Their heads are actually that shape.

We are supposed to tip Chef's as well?


....damnit!

 

[sdifox]

I bet you hide an instantpot under your chef's hat

Might want to down-size in the hat since you only have one IP now..............

 

[Fritzo]

Hats are going out of vogue, but the taller the hat, the higher the rank.

Don't be silly, where is the rat going to stand?

No no, I have a 14-quart model coming in...

 

[Thebobo]

So rats can stand up underneath them, duh.

If the chef works for tips, expect fine dining ahead.

[FeuerFrei]

So you can spot them behind the microwave.

 

[John Connor]

I'm guessing it's of French origin.

 

[brainhulk]

 

[who?]

So that people can see that the boss is coming.

I believe it indicates different ranks within the kitchen, because I've seen hats with varying lengths. I'm just assuming though.

I think you're right now that I think of it.
