Talk:Sous-chef

Pronunciation?
Can anyone show the correct pronunciation? I've always assumed that the second 's' was silent, but I'm not really sure.--Alta-Snowbird 14:58, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

On Iron Chef Alton Brown pronounce it with a silent s, as in the name "Sue". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.251.190.62 (talk) 17:45, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Brigade system
How does this job fit into the Brigade system? Or to put it another way, maybe all the other roles and this one should be linked as a set of articles showing the progression and branches of the cooking - chef world (Line chef - Sous chef - Chef de Cuisine/Executive Chef; specialties etc). --132.3.61.79 (talk) 18:09, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

A new rank for chefs.
Recently, on cooking competitions on TV, I've seen contestants describing themselves as the "executive sous chef" for an establishment. From what I understand, and what this article says, this is a contradiction. Does anybody here know just what that job title means or is it just a meaningless title used to make the holder feel important? JDZeff (talk) 21:49, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
