I love people, and I'm excited that I can turn them on.

I'm a professional cook. I've worked with other cooks from all over the world, but my family is not that way - they're always lived within 25 miles of my hometown!

When the taste changes with every bite and the last bite tastes as good as the first, that's Cajun.

I believe in America. I'm one of those silly flag wavers.

One of my missions was to teach.

When I travel I normally eat club sandwiches or I bring my own food. When you go into a new town, it's very had to find a good place to eat.

I don't think life is to be taken too seriously. Take it too seriously, and it'll getcha.
