Here is the link to verify certified executive chef status, which is challenging to obtain. Mr. Weiss claims status as a certified executive chef, yet he is not on the ACF's list. Dinner at Lavinia's, anyone?
Brendan McGuff (Identified in the paper as the infamous Lavinia's "Executive Chef" is not listed as an Executive Chef on the ACF's list, either.

So ... what makes him an "executive chef?

I don't know him, he may be a good cook, even a passable chef, but I have to assume Eric Weiss knew what he was saying when he claimed McGuff was a "recent culinary grad," and even I, Clueless in the Kitchen, realize it takes years of experience to earn the title "executive chef."

Otherwise: "It don't mean nothin.'"

OK,time to don my "Executive Sanitation Engineer" cap: time to take out the trash.
