"The Cook" is a 1918 silent film staring Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle and Buster Keaton. The movie is a slapstick comedy and focuses on goings-on at a high-end restaurant with Arbuckle as the Cook and Keaton as the Waiter.

The film is notable for a scene spoofing the 1918 Theda Bara film "Salomé", with Arbuckle dancing around in drag.

The movie was believed to be lost for several decades before being uncovered in Norway. It is currently available on DVD as "The Cook and Other Treasures".
