What is the name for a chef's hat?

Question

I would like to know what the long hat that chef's wear is called.

Toque is what Google/Wikipedia proffer but is it really that?

Answer

Yes, it is called a toque. I don't have a copy of CIA Pro Chef handy at the moment, but it was in the first chapter IIRC. Wikipedia and a casual googling will confirm this.
