I think every young cook wants to write a book.
I think that you’ve got to make something that pleases you and hope that other people feel the same way.
Respect for food is respect for life, for who we are and what we do.
Vegetables to me are - I don't want to say the most exciting part of cooking, but certainly a very exciting part of cooking, because they continue to change. They come into season and they go through different phases.
My favorite wines are Zinfandels.
Good food is a good trend.
