I merged the article Toque blanche into this one, as the text was already a verbatim subset of this article. /blahedo (t) 03:49, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Chef's hat

strictly speaking this item was borrowed from the bakery trade, as chefs had no distintive uniform of their own.In classic kitchen the height or size of the hat denotes the seniority of the wearer, sometimes reaching ridiculous proportions.A firm starching is required and this can be uncomfortable in the hot enviroment of the kitchen as streams of starch and perspiration run down your face!

The preceding text was posted by an anonymous user at 80.230.82.97 at 14:55, 21 August 2005 to the Talk page at Chef's hat, which is already a redirect to toque. I copied it here for, I guess, completeness. /blahedo (t) 03:56, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

No offense to Mobutu Sese Seko, but mightn't it make more sense to have a picture of a chef's toque in here, since toques are much more strongly associated with that usage than Mobutu Sese Seko's? AdjectiveAnimal 14:12, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it does make more sense! Badagnani 00:30, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
