Pro Chef Breaks Down Cooking in Movies | GQ

[@AmarHujan]

I love how every chef ever interviewed will confirm that Ratatouille is the film that gets the world of restaurants the most accurate

[@TheStoney85]

It is one of the better ones i think burnt is way better though

[@horanghaeng]

@@jss27560 100%

[@gantzllat]

@@jss27560 funny enough, when a health inspector goes to a kitchen, they don't ask "do you have rats in here?" because the obvious answer will always be "yes" and if they claim to not have rats, they are either lying or they don't care about them. The question they ask is "how do you deal with rats" If you have a kitchen, with lots of food around and such, there will be rats, lots of them. What makes the difference between a properly managed establishment and a wreck is how they deal with them.

[@michaeldorso7099]

Fun fact: Rats have the complete inability to throw up or gag. So therefore, Linguini's soup was so horrible, it broke the laws of nature.

[@aryuhs]

thank you for this totally random but somehow very interesting and hilarious fact

The reason Ratatouille is so accurate is in large part because the creators did their due diligence consulting with a real chef, I recommend checking out the bonus features for more details.

[@rickcoona]

The movie *Chef* is also very accurate. Roy Choy, the technical consultant taught the star/director John Favreau how to cook like a chef actually having him prep and cook a roll course meal for other professional chefs to prove his chops before shooting began.

@@Jo-ij5nh learning to properly use a chef knife is the most liberating feeling in a kitchen. It becomes the extension of yourself and is more important than any other tool in the kitchen. And you run less risk of hurting yourself with the proper tool. That being said, you should always find the right knife for you. It should feel comfortable in your hand and have a comfortable weight. The size of your hands doesn't matter all that much in that respect.

"Very organized" "completely organized" One can even says military precision. One of the main founders of the modern restauration business was the French Chef Escoffier. He started as a officers' mess cook during the French-Prussian war. After the war, he decided to translate his experience into organizing a restaurant's kitchen into a highly efficient war machine. Accessorily, he also learned during the war (under siege, and then as POWs) how to cook everything for the officers, and to make it look good. Dead horse meat, by example.

As a musician, who also loves to cook, those scenes really hit me.
