I admit I have no study to give about that. So here what I think

- Can be because this job is hard and women are unable to success at it in Cooking school (but personally, I don't believe that women can't do as good as men)

- Can be because this milieu is sectarian. "Could be" imo. A lot of grand-chef are middle aged if not old, and even if for our generation it seems natural to think we're equal between men and women, don't forget that it is pretty recent. Might be that in the past, those high-class jobs were usually for men. Maybe it takes time to change.

- Can be because women are simply not interested since they do the cooking at home, they don't want to do that as a job too

If you have some other possible explanations, plz share XD
