1. Chef Inspiration: Muse in the Kitchen
Whether you believe cooking is an art, a craft, or somewhere in between, you know that to cook well you must be inspired. Six chefs and pastry chefs from around the country share the passions and ideas behind their dishes, featuring 2009 Boston Rising Star Chef Mike Pagliarini of Via Matta in Boston, 2005 San Francisco Rising Star Chef-consultant Boris Portnoy of SucrePunch in San Francisco, Pastry Chef Elwyn Bowles of Per Se in New York, and more.

2. Jobseeker Career Tip: Prove Yourself Promotion-Worthy
So you're a hard-working line cook, you show up on time every day and finish all your work as assigned. You think your consistent work will earn you a promotion, but your chef may see it differently. How do you convince your boss to give you a promotion? Make it easy for her. Show that you can handle a higher degree of responsibility and more complicated work by taking more initiative in your current position. That means finishing your prep work faster and neater, helping coworkers during service, and learning new techniques. By doing the same work day in and day out, you are not showing that you can handle a job with more responsibility. If you want to move ahead in your career, you have to exceed expectations. Stretch your abilities, and you'll give your boss a reason to promote you.
