No, because the detective would have noticed the chef stirring.
 
But this did use the fog. However, most of the time the boiling room wasn't foggy  Shocked

The chef that committed the murder had hidden some rope that he got from the boiling room AFTER the body was discovered

Was the window fogged up, or was it a window that is transparent when the door is open and frosted when the door is closed? (has to do with magnetism or something...)

So much for that idea...
 
See, the policewoman walking by and ignoring the detective inside the room... I don't think she ignored him, I think she couldn't see him well enough to know he had winked at her.

The victim was bringing some things over to the stove to add to the soup (which to him, a master of fine taste, was not quite right, but to someone with less refined taste might seem so). He was carrying the tomato in his arm, using his chest to balance it while he unloaded the rest of what he was carrying. The tomato was completely frozen, so cold that it froze the victim in an instant, killing him, but also leaving him frozen in place. The victim remained dead, in a standing position until the steam from the soup on the stove thawed him (and the tomato) out. Once thawed, the victim fell, smashing the back of his head on the counter top and knocking over a pile of pots and pans, and alerting the detective in the kitchen.
 
Thus, the murder is solved!  Cool

I knew I was going to be wrong, but I put it up on the off chance that I was wrong!  
 
Knew the tomato was frozen, because in order for it to have made tomato stains on the dead chef's apron it would have to have thawed out again.

Well the boiling room was hot, so the tomato thawed.
 
And nothing important was really discovered on the boilers shoes. Bits and pieces of tomato, maybe...

I was thinking along the "bits and pieces of tomato (juice) that, attached to the soles and frozen, could keep the dead man standing" lines...  Roll Eyes

Other than bits and pieces of tomato, right? Wink
 
Okay... The rope you mentioned earlier, was that in the boiler room before the victim died?

Yes. After the detective cornered the killer and told him his suspicions, the killer came clean and gave him the rope. That had some tomato and grease on it, and for some strange reason, smelled like smoke.
 
Well... it was in there before the victim died because the killer brings it in as he was about to kill him so..... it's not the murder weapon though.

Cigarette smoke? Campfire smoke? Candle smoke? House fire smoke? Burnt food smoke? Kerosene fire smoke?  
 
What kind of smoke?
