Executive Chef Owner of Restaurant. A Chef de partie (CDP), also known as a âstation chefâ or âline cookâ, is in charge of a particular area of production. In large kitchens, each chef de partie might have several cooks and/or assistants. In most kitchens however, the chef de partie is the only worker in that department. Chef de Parties are often divided into a hierarchy of their own, starting with âFirst Cookâ, then âSecond Cookâ, and so on as needed. Chef de Partie titles which are part of the brigade system include: SautÃ© Chef (Saucier) â Responsible for all sautÃ©ed items and their sauce. This is usually the highest position of all the stations. Fish Chef (Poissonier) â Prepares fish dishes and often does all fish butchering as well as appropriate sauces.
