“I’m z Chef – I’m z Chef” is a familiar proclamation heard from those of us that wish we had the culinary talents to be z Chef. Can you think of a more notable profession or hobby? The Chef is part artist, part scientist, and possesses the license to be as esoteric and eccentric as he or she desires. Monarch of the kitchen and tantalizer of our taste buds, who doesn’t want to be z Chef?

Do you have the urge and talent to be Chef? If a European friend invited you to their place for zakuski, what would you expect to eat? A) Russian tidbits and ice-cold vodka? B) Turkish-spiced sesame seeds to go with your raki sofrasi c) Italian egg punch dessert and Marsala Superiore or d) German toasted bread slices and Liebfraumilch? For the answer to this question and other chef-ready trivia,  try taking MSN’s Chef’s Training Quiz.

Maybe being the Chef critic is a little easier than being z Chef! Thanks to Al Nucifora, leading marketing consultant, for giving us this post idea.
