I would say that kitchen steward comes closest to what the person in charge 
of the kitchen does. He/she plans the menus, gathers the recipes purchases 
the food, orchestrates the other cooks. Clearly these functions are 
emphasized in the definitions you kindly provided. While the Steward may also 
do cooking in the SCA that is clearly not their primary function with regard 
to feasts. From your examples it is clear that Steward best defines the 
duties of the former 'feast-o-crat' with more clarity than Head cook or any 
other phrase that includes cook in it. It is just for such reasons that I 
originally introduced the term Kitchen Steward as an alternative to 
feast-o-crat and head cook several years ago. I am pleased that it has caught 
on so rapidly.
