This is the kind of romanticized version of professional cooking I had dreamed about participating in as a kid. Incredible stuff

@@richardshackleton9827How do you figure that? She started at 7:30 (she likely actually got there earlier than that) and finished up at around 4:30-5:00 (or longer depending on how long tasters take since she can’t leave until final approval). That’s 9-91/2 hours, not factoring the 1/2 hour lunch break. That’s a full day, considering a normal workday in the USA is 8 hours.

I mean sure…been a chef for around 24 years or so..rarely put in less than 12hrs a day.

The fact that she has this level of skill & has only worked at one other kitchen before shows her love & dedication to this restaurant & the cuisine. No wonder everyone seemed so chill & under control ! Her voice was also really uplifting :)

that comes with doing basically the same tasks for 12 hours a day and when you're resilient to do it

The humility, diligence and positivity speaks volumes.

You know you are in a busy kitchen when you are prepping in the prep meeting...

yea that was a little too much.

Such a fantastic attitude, love the positivity. Can be the difference between a dream kitchen and a horrid one. Bravo

The sous chef's dedication to every aspect of the restaurant and her craft is uplifting.

Ann is such a kind soul, definitely need to add this spot to my restaurant bucket list.

I loved this episode. You can tell she's truly passionate about what she does, it's amazing.

Too many influencer "chefs" wear latex gloves. I love to see that restaurants still use their bare hands when dealing with food and put an enormous emphasis on hand washing and cleanliness!

Influencer chefs wear gloves since it makes it easy to pull them off if you need to check something on the camera or use the computer during the shot.

@@rosastratton4169 Surprisingly, there is no rule like that. Gloves are more theater than anything and only serve to keep the cook's hands clean. Sadly, wearing gloves is usually less sanitary because the person doesn't feel that it is dirty, like their hands would, and so they change gloves much less often than you would wash your hands. I have worked 30 years in food and have noticed this often, that people would go hours without changing their gloves. Hair just needs to be pulled back.

The shot of the man folding napkins looked like a Vermeer painting ❤

“Our intern Remy” I’ve heard that one before 🐀👨🏻‍🍳

It's amazing leadership. She gave credit to everyone and that's amazing

FYI this was the upstairs cafe, the downstairs main kitchen is a whole other level of awesome.

I love these "a day with"'s. The pasta one still I think is my favorite just because it resonates most with me for some reason. This one is top tier as well, honestly they all are great. These professionals are so inspiring.

For those who've never been here, this place changed my life and how I see food. They have the best soup I have ever had in my whole life.

Love her energy, and you can tell her staff does too

It was a treat and an honor to go on this remarkable sous chef’s journey at one of the finest restaurants in America. ❤

The quality of the space and materials adds to the overall spirit of the work. Inspiring

YES. Exactly my style of cooking. Put the focus on the purity and quality of the ingredient and you dont have to use a plethora of techniques and spices and equipment to make an amazing dish

Wow, this girl is a ball of light and energy! You can tell she really takes pride in her work, she does so much so gracefully. What a kind and respectful leader too. I think she dropped this 👑

Ann seems like a fantastic teacher and leader in the kitchen. love to see it

Truly, watching people working, specially when they love what they do, is the biggest inspiration for me! Great video! ❤

That braise liquid tho?!!! YES!!! I want a bowl of that! Also shout out to wanting nice big chunks instead of shredded. I don't know what's up with the trend of having all shredded meats, stuff is always soaking wet yet somehow is dry AF?! How is that even possible?!

These are the folks that need to be commended for a good meal. These are the folks that need to be appreciated for a good meal. These are the folks that should really be getting tips for a good meal. I could care less who’s jotting down my order and waiting on my table. I go to a restaurant to eat good food prepared by a caring, well trained kitchen staff. Hats off to these folks.

Love seeing people with a passion for their craft

There's something magical about watching someone do something they absolutely love. Cheers to them and their team.

Zero tension at all in this kitchen Everybody, for sure, is as nice as they seem to

Having worked as both a line and a prep cook, prep is a lot less stressful than service; I bet the line cooks upstairs get their game faces on during dinner rush. Not saying you can't be nice during service, but there will often be tension if things don't run smoothly, and a lot of that rides on having a great prep.

Such intricacy! Like a well oiled machine! Hats off to these guys working a restaurant kitchen and doing it masterfully!

Over the past 20 years or so, I have eaten at the more formal Chez Panisse Restaurant, downstairs 3 times, and at the more relaxed Cafe upstairs, profiled here, several times. Most recently, I ate a week ago today. Kinda cool when it's your "neighborhood restaurant."

I *loved* this Episode!! The dishes looked so delicious. 😋😍

That was great. Thank you.

Thank u so much for showing the eater what goes into the making of the food. Everything looked fresh and delicious. Its great to see the level and thought that goes into the food. Bravo to you the chef and all involved. If I visited ur city this certainly would be on my bucket list, because the quality of the prep and care given to ingredients. Love it. Warmly Cookie K ❤😊

I absolutely love to cook and I have done it for awhile in the food industry but I left that because i started to hate cooking and I genuinely love it so much I didn’t want to ruin something I am so passionate about
