A Self-taught adult - often a bachelor- learning to cook later in life. Marked by clumsy technique, minimal skills, and maximum YouTube reliance. Known for treating every semi-edible dish like a personal triumph. The guy that realizes instant ramen isn't a real meal and UberEats is getting expensive. Now he is cooking like his life depends on it... because.. you know... it does. Zero training, plenty of enthusiasm, and wayyyyy too many cooking gadgets that he may never even use. A culinary glow up in progress. See also "King of the Burnt Pancake." For a feminine term, please see "Chef Hot Messica"
