Chefs of the Strip (Bacchanal)

In this post we'll take a look at what it takes to be a chef that operates one of the best buffets in the United States, in Las Vegas on the Strip at Bacchanal located in the Caesar's Palace. Chef Leticia Nunez heads an army of cooks that feeds nearly 4,000 eaters a day. With nearly 500 different dishes throughout the day, Bacchanal's crew has more than its share of duties to fill. 

This video even if this restaurant closes gives aspiring chefs a look at how a leader in this type of environment conducts business. The term chef has to be earned. At times there's too many so-called chefs that did not pull their time and weight in terms of years to truly be called a chef. Thanks to stupid shows on television, every cook is a chef. No. They are not. Chefs like martial artists need to train, not only in what the food looks and tastes like. But how to run a proficient operation and execute every day, every night. I laugh at some of the chefs on Maui, because some of these clowns did not put in their time. They got a gig from an owner of an eatery and immediately they are chefs, and that goes to their heads. It's one thing to know food science, and how to build sauces from scratch, but to be labled a chef when all that dude does is open mayonnnaise, and salad dressing jars? Give me a break. I'll call you a chef when I understand you put in your time. If you didn't, take that title off of your jacket. I'm serious. It's time we get real around here.
