Chefs are made, not born
Nobody’s born with a whisk in hand—Chefs Are Made, Not Born shouts that culinary mastery comes from blistered knuckles, drilled technique, and years on the line, not luck in the gene pool.
From day‑one knife‑skills labs to nightly prep lists, culinary schools hammer home fundamentals precisely because expertise is earned in deliberate practice, hour after hour.
The mantra echoes Malcolm Gladwell’s “10 000‑hour rule”—history’s shorthand for how long it takes focused effort to tip craft into art.
Wear this tee as a badge of that grind: whether you’re a student brunoising mountains of carrots or a seasoned pro still chasing cleaner plates, it tells the world greatness is cooked, not gifted.
