@@ivermektin6874 Depends really. Some of the higher end restaurants and hotels offer pretty competitive wages. If you can hack a 50 plus hour work week you could be walking home with £1300 every fortnight. It's not megabucks but it's a LOT better than the average wage for a commis chef in London, and the wage will climb as you progress in your career. The real draw of working for these restaurants is the training you get, and the career opportunities that come with being able to put them on your CV, as well as the connections you make. You eat shit for a few years until you get to be an experienced CDP, and then you're in demand for pretty much any chef job in the country with whichever financial benefits that come with living in those areas, on top of a pretty decent salary. This is without even mentioning the eligibility to take your trade overseas and being at the front of the queue for an "in demand worker" visa in countries like Australia. All this is to say, London chefs pretty much eat sht for their first few years - financially speaking. But it can be worth it if you make it so.

Extremely happy to have found my found my way to this video; amazing content and some excellent chef skills being shown! That aside I'm curious as to how you'd rate that omelette at the end from 1-10 where 1 is catastrophy and 10 is best possible? When you're starting making it scrambled I think I was seeing a potential 9 or even 10, but for me personally the end result is a 5 at best. Although I'm known to be meticulous to the extreme seeing everything else first as quite perfect it made that last part quite disappointing due to the previous skills shown. I particularly liked seeing the chives and brunoise, but overall it's very well done!

When I was a chef , up too head chef we never asked for a skills test , they came in the mid 90 ‘ s , my last interview was as a senior Sous chef at “ The London Hilton “ my skills test for those interested was write three course menu , which was ..Hot Caesar salad , with poached baby gem lettuce 🥬, poached shrimp and Parmesan and anchovy dressing , pan fried Sea bass fillet with a cockle risotto , and followed with a wild berry crumble with a basil scented ice cream , order the ingredients to be waiting for me in the Hilton Kitchen , and cook it for the head executive chef , and pre seeding that was a formal sit down interview with my written resume and references, All went well until I did not warn the executive chef the plates I served the food on where red hot , he burnt his fingers on them so needless to say I did NOT get the job , I left formal catering and opened up my own gourmet bed and breakfast that made it into the “ Michelin guide “ I’m now retired sadly due too I’ll health , but I always remember the “ Dreaded skill test “ .

man.... you should have explained the reason for the omelete test. The reason you ask a chef to make a baveuse omelete. is to check if hes got the instinct of a hot kitchen chef. an experience hot kitchen chef knows when to to put pan on heat and remove it. without overcooking or undercooking the egg. by just sight and feel you can see if the egg is ready to be folded or when to remove it from the heat. but also to put it back. also folding the egg and plating it, requires technique. you have to be fast showing confidence but also not to fast you break the fold. the omelete test was the ultimate test for a saucier which was the most respected station in a french brigade. saucier is normally the most experienced chef in the kitchen next to the Sous-chef. because meat and sauce is the most important part in any french dish.

This video is super. The pace is great and I can really see the difference between what you are doing and what I do. I am a trained Thai chef, but while they all love eating western bread and cakes, thai cuisine does not tend to consist of pies! For years I was gluten intolerant and in those days there was no decent replacement for wheat-based flour... there are lots of alternatives now....so there was no point in my doing any baking to make things I could not eat, which meant I didn't get the practice in. ......So, I need some advice about pastry-making. Your pastry in this video is lovely and yellow - I am assuming it is butter and egg-rich or has at least one of those in abundance in it? Can you give out the recipe please or point me to it? Secondly, it seems much softer than the ones I make. Why is this - how do you get it to be this way? Is it the temperature of the ingredients, and if so, what temp is the pastry in this video? Any advice you can give on this, would be great. Thanks so much. Am going to subscribe!

To some it can seem petty, but properly done chives makes a big difference to the visual appearance and the mouth feel. You take the first bite with your eyes, the second bite with mouth feel, and only the third bite is that actual taste of the food, once chewed a bit. All three things have to pop. If they don't people will, rightfully, prefer their own food at home.... And our job is to make them smilingly part with their cash.

The pastry is my weakest area chef, tried but give me meat and stocks any day. Trying out your tapioca chix wings recipe. I agree cornflour rice flour mixes are too dense. Buttermilk and brine are always there.

One more than one occasion it sounded like someone is expected to bring their own knife to a test like this? Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought I heard him say something to the effect of the applicant being judged on the sharpness of their knife. Edit: he later said that HE doesn't expect people to, but is that a common expectation?

When making pastry, you have two rules: the rules to follow and the rules to not. It's a science, but you better follow the rules.

So I qualify as a Michelin chef because I have 1st day in the kitchen knife skills? what a racket

The point about the attitude is spot on. The dicing of the shallot comes down to how much you think is ok to waste. The omelete was undercooked imo.

That's how I like mine but I think most people would want it cooked slightly more. When we have scrambled eggs at home, my portion comes out of the pan first and my other half has hers cooked slightly more.

But it's only for western Michelin chefs. In Asia it can be small bar with chicken and they'll get a star.

When I trained, Robbie Millar (God rest his soul) bought me a tourné knife. Thousands of fecking potatoes. I got rather good at it.

Im a custom painter and airbrush artist. If I were to hire someone I'd ask them to put masking tape on their forearm Then cut it with an exacto knife with out leaving a mark. I know it's possible. Bc I can do it easily.
