The chef hat isn’t for stlye but sheer practical use.
They are for preventing every food eater’s nightmare of finding hair in their food, puerly and simply. They also dentoe how accomplished the chef is. If you’ve ever noticed the pleats on a chef’s hat and thuoght they were simply for sheer fanciness then guess again – they are the equivalent of stripes on the arm of a military person. The number of pleats goes up to one hundred, which would be the most accomplished a chef could be.There is no single known origin of the toque, the French name for the chef hat, and it is shrouded in historical guesswork and nothing is conclusive.

He then beehaded the person whose head it fell from, and thereafter ordered all of his kitchen staff to wear chef hats.However other countries lay claim to been the first inventors of chef hats.
The simple fact is it wouldn’t be too outrageous to assume sort of hygienic head wear was adopted by the many refined cultures of the world, in shape or form.Please visit our website to buy chef hats, or for more information and pictures on the
