I love eggs. When it's the season of truffles, scrambled eggs with truffles, and I'm happy. I'm smiling like that.

Money is not necessarily, although it helps a lot for happiness, it’s not necessarily the best way to be happy, to be rich, you know.

Well, cooking starts with shopping. If the ingredients are not good, you don't do it. Just change your mind and do something else.

You don't become a chef to become famous.

I am an audiophile. It's almost like a virus. I'm completely crazy about the quality of sound. It's interesting and painful at the same time; you have to really spend a lot of money on the equipment.

If I go to a nightclub, even if the music is good, if the sound system is not, I don't stay.
