liked
I liked to screw around in the kitchen when I was a kid. But I started cooking when I was 15.
restaurant worse
There's always room to improve in a restaurant. A restaurant is better or worse every day than it was the day before. It's impossible not to be, because it's human.
confident people
With chefs, the problem is we have to be very confident because people are looking at us for that. So pretty soon, you think you're a plumber, you think you're an electrician, you think you're an accountant.
life people settle time ways works
There are two ways to look at how life works and how people find their paths. One way is you take your time and try different things out. The other is you settle in early. I was into cooking very early.
guests remember
You have to always remember who your guest is, and thats who we cater to.
burgers comfort recessions
I don't know if you call a burger 'recession food.' It's comfort food.
