Sous Chefs: Unsung Heroes

Published Friday, April 26

Despite the acclaim heaped upon their mentors, we very seldom hear from the unsung heroes of the restaurant kitchen. Sous chefs aren`t lauded with awards. Or mentioned in most restaurant reviews. They seldom get credit for dishes they`ve created that make it onto a restaurant menu. And - in most cases - there are few restaurant patrons who even know their names. In fact, I`d venture a guess that most people, unless they`ve worked in the service industry, don`t have a very clear understanding of what a sous chef (French for "under chef") really does.
