Well,I figured out how to grind chef under 12 hours (I did it in 11 hours 57 mins). Now some master crafters can see it but most will go.. yeah right.. LIAR!!... well I will do the math FOR you...
Grind the new Ithorian Mist at 252 xp each craft on pratice mode.
This is the fastest way I am sure but you will need some supplies...
10k Wheat (Soypro)
10k Vegetables (Soypro)
45k gemstone (small drinks)
45k Wheat (Alcohol)
150k Wheat (Ithorian Mist)
100k Water (Ithorian Mist)
2-8 factories (I used 4)
Need to make 4 schematics(1,000) of small drink and 4schematics(1,000) of alcohol.
I made all 8 schematics and had 4 factories set up. Put 2 of each in there before I logged. When I came back on I put the other 4 in the factories and grapped some small drinks and alcohol crates.
First you want to grind Soypro till you get to Mixology II.Make the itemfor 80xp each andthen eat it for another 40xp. Since its a component, it has a filling of zero, so you don't have to worry about using up stomach space. Once you get Mixology IIswitch over to Ithorian Mist to get Master Chef. I find this the fastest way. Some do not like using parts (small drinks and alcohol in Ithorian Mist) so they can do Synthsteakit gives 180 xp a craft on non-practice mode and takes 20 vegetables 20 cereal and 5 hide. I don't like the hide because I do not have any fighting professions and I have 56 ER13 harvestors to get any resources I need for grinding 
There is 819200 xp total to craft in chef. At 252 xp a craft you have to do 3251 crafts total. 819200 / 242 = 3250.79
I have a custom macro where it takes 8 seconds a craft. 3251 x 8 = 26008secs / 60 = 433.46mins / 60 = 7.22hours
So that is 7.22 hours of crafting to get to chef. But you have to craftSoypro till you get to Mixology II so that takes little more time and you have to find chef trainers and keep making runs to the factories to get more crates because you can't carry all the crates on you.
I will double check this information on this later. There is always something a person forgets or types wrong.

Are you saying that you get crafting xp for factories now? OMG this is insane!

I followed the guide in the new FAQ and went from novice chef to master in about 8 hours. Soypro till dessert I. pastebread till dessert III. kiwik till master.
I already had gxp required for novice before starting.
I didnt bother eating the soypro for the extra xp. I had plenty of material and speed was what I was after.
For each column, took about 10-15 min for level 1, 15-20 min for level 2, 30-35 for level 3 and 40-45 for level 4.
Already had all material ready to go.
I think the faq was dead on and a great resource (thanks sciguyco!)

You're obviously bored and fed up
Can I suggest you give up the game and give me all your stuff instead ?

There, there. It's not that it's a bad idea, necessarily, it's just that doing factory runs of components is generally more trouble than its worth for grinding. Plus Ithorian Mist gains you fewer xp for the extra work. At 260, Kiwik is close to the highest xp gain of any food, the only ones that are higher are:
Bivoli, Entrees IV (requires carbosyrup and dough) 280
Burnout Sauce, Entrees IV(requires carbosyrup) 280
Bespin Port, Mix IV (requires 3 ident alcohol, a containerand Tat resources) 280
Pica Thundercloud, Mix IV (requires 4 ident alcohol, a container, and neutronium steel) 280
T'illa T'ill, Mix IV (requires 2 ident alcohol, a container, and rare inert gases) 360
Thakitillo (no components, but it's a master schematic) 350
SinceKiwik doesn't require components it's going to be the easiest to do, especially for people who can't afford a factory. Or hologrinders, since they're probably not going to want the extra expense of purchasing, maintaining and powering something they won't use once they master Chef and move on. And it'sa relatively low-level schematic, making it obtainable that much earlier.
that could be fatal....
