Are you saying the chef doesn't? He has a Weird design that can look completely different once he keeps his mouth shut and takes the chef hat off, not a "normal" case character design. His shoulders seem to be pretty wide so maybe he's a largely built person.
In the raw, I can still see his tooth if he closes his mouth. Besides, I have hard time imagining BO No.2 work at a restaurant. I think it more reasonable if he/she infiltrates police of intelligence agencies if he/she is targeting spies in BO . Maybe I am wrong, but let's see what is going on.
Well we'll probably get an idea of what this guy is about when the last file of the case drops. If it's a cliffhanger with him, he'll be relevant one way or another.

Spoiler:
Yes, Chances are that the chef might be rum disguised but still why would he disguise as a Restaurant worker besides even if he has a non working or artificial eye, I believe he would try to deceive it rather hiding it .!

Spoiler:
If gosho wasn't misleading us or playing on words in the AC hints so Rum should have already appeared , and it's a lack of ideas to introduce Rum disguised as a cook after introducing bourbon disguised as a waiter so I don't think this person is Rum , however gosho didn't introduce a one case suspect before so I am hopeful that this new detective will lead us to something

The cook technically isn't a detective, he's supossed to be a fan of mysteries in general but it's but his hobby.

Spoiler:
If Rum doesn’t employ disguises all the time, that there are three different descriptions alone might indicate that their appearance is somehow conspicuous, and if we assume that they agree on the artificial eye because it is actually there, the number two is probably handicapped enough for my taste. While I can imagine that Rum is something like an eerie-looking psychopath (as far as this is possible in a shounen series), I think that there is a fine line between a well-made lunatic whose somewhat disgusting look contributes to their dangerousness and someone utterly deformed who is more of an exaggerated caricature, and I tend to classify the cook as the latter.

That chef has way too many features btw (buck teeth, eye patch, moustache, bandana) so I think maybe he's in some sort of disguise

Spoiler:
What if it is his style, remember Capt. Jack Sparrow -Pirates of Caribbean He even had the same sort of attire. I am not saying he is a pirate ;D ;D :D :D but nah! he is just someone like a minor one to bring some twist in the story. I cannot believe the fact i stated earlier as well that a person who is 2nd in command of a top secret organization be disguised in a restaurant worker just for the sake of what? Finding Conan. Did he foresee that kogoro will STEAL the ticket and will come to his shop only. I think it is way to much to think as PLANNED

I hope that I can find someway to contribute to the community even if it's just random crack theories and looking things up for people who can't find the information they need.

And, besides, RUM is supposed to be a man to begin with, maybe a "femenine-looking" man but a man.

That asides, none of the cast made any special observation about her.
I was thinking about a possible mix-up between her and Billy, in terms of description. The only thing that's missing is the eye though... the cast doesn't have to always make a note of an important character(we never saw Akai getting Conan's interest, besides by being a suspect, in his first intro, we only got indications of his importance). Fusae was teased to appear and meet Agasa earlier than normal...

(not a serious theory though, just thought of her after remembering that she was referenced in the first Rum case)...

@MoonRaven: well, it's supposed to be an everyday case, a case that isn't relevant to the plot so of course it appears as different

Is this the angry "Are you freaking serious?" If so, why?
“Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs, and and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outre results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable.”

Maybe he/she thinks that the case's story is lame and of little interest: maybe they were expecting something far more plot-relevant and their expectations got betrayed hence their mood.
