“I had wanted to be a dentist, but ended up being a chef. I think I've always had a fascination for jobs that have white jackets.”

“I never tried to convince my wife to move to Italy. She wouldn't have liked that.”

“I'm the king of napping. I can nap and I snore. Then I wake up, go to the toilet, wash my face, have a coffee and it's like a brand new day.”

“The hardest thing about being a full time chef is leaving my work behind when I go home at night. I'll toss and turn about a menu item or forget to order produce and wake up at 4 A.M. in a cold sweat over some artichokes.”

“I had no desire to be a chef, but I had a desire to be someone who was heard.”

“Because I am a chef, I have to try new things all the time, so it's been really good to have my family to be able to be there and test everything out.”
