Cook / Kitchen Helper
A cook is responsible for preparing dishes and following recipes, while a kitchen helper (also called a kitchen assistant) provides support by handling tasks like washing dishes, basic food preparation, cleaning, and organizing supplies. Both roles are crucial for a kitchen's operation, but they differ in responsibility: the cook is focused on the final product, and the helper ensures the foundational tasks are completed to keep the kitchen running smoothly and hygienically.
