      🍳 Don’t believe everything you hear about the glamorous life of chefs… it’s not all sunshine and roses! 🎨

      🔄 From a rejected job to a prestigious profession… but the price is high!

      Just ten years ago, parents’ reactions 🫣 were shocking when their child said they wanted to become a cook. Today, the profession is admired — but the reality is completely different! Chefs work when others relax 🕛 and spend around 16 hours a day in the kitchen 🏃‍♂️💨. Their lives are like a marathon, demanding extreme focus and precision in every detail.

      🍽️ The myth: Chefs always eat delicious meals!

      The reality: Despite their deep knowledge of food 🥘, they usually eat quickly ⏳ and irregularly during work. The stress and constant tasting kill their appetite 🚫🍴. After a long day, at 2 a.m., even the simplest bite tastes amazing!

        Hi Chef Ahmed! 👋 Thanks for sharing such a powerful image and such an honest reflection.

        What’s the main reward you feel today after choosing this path? Because yes, there’s exhaustion, pressure, and wild schedules, but there’s also something that keeps you steady at the cutting board, right?
        I’d love to know what you’d say to someone just entering this world, now that you know what it really takes. We’re here for whatever you need—technically and emotionally
