• You just open a small but fancy restaurant. You have a few secret sauces that serve as a base for many of your dishes. The receipes were passed down from your great great aunt, which you have improvised to today's modern taste. Your fame and success have exploded due to recent appearances on the Food Network and raving reviews on food magazines and Yelp. You decide to hire a chef to help you cook because you can't cook and run the restaurant at the same time. While you want to disclose the ingredients to the chef so s/he may prepare the dishes, you still want to protect your secret recipes. You don't want that chef to tell her/his families, friends, or customers about what's in the recipes. how you would go about protecting your recipes.
• You are also aware that your chef above won't work for you forever. She or he will one day quit her/his amazing job at your restaurant to perhaps open her/his own restaurant. Your concern is that you don't want your chef to steal your customers or even open a restaurant down the block from you when s/he leaves your employment. what you would do to ensure your business interests are protected.

You will need to do some research on the Internet to figure out what kind of agreements you want the chef to sign in order to address the two concerns above.
