I have very vivid memories of being a young child. My mother would create dinner as for us, and when she would bake, she would leave some dough for me. I would roll the dough into little sticks while she was cooking the apple tart of whatever. I was looking through the window of the oven and flipping the light, and then my bread would come out, and it was inedible, of course.

The fish is the star of the plate.

I love garlic, and I use it often.

When you are 25, 30, you know, you have no responsibility, no mortgage, no kids, no retirement to think about, nothing.

I don't like it when I go to a restaurant and I'm lectured from the menu.

In New York there used to be some very good clubs with amazing sound systems. Techno was part of the process.

Today, because I want to be gentle on my back, I listen to jazz.
