A Chef's pan is better than a frying pan because: It's deeper, therefore great for bigger dishes with lots of liquid, ideal for casseroles. Has more surface area, can be useful when reducing. Curved profile which is great for folding omelettes. Frying pans are better than Chef's pans for: Cooking fish - our 11" (28.5cm) Spun Iron Crepe Pan is ideal for this, as it's easier to slide fish out onto the plate. Frying steak - one of our steak skillets is a better choice. Pancakes - the 11" (28.5cm) Spun Iron Crepe Pan is perfect for cooking, flipping and sliding out pancakes.
