One Of The Problems Of Our Youth

What I Think And What The World Thinks Is Totally Different.

The Bad Part About Being Recognized Is That When I Walk Into A Restaurant And Sit Down, I've Got To Eat Everything On The Plate, Whether It's Good Or Bad. People Would Take It As An Insult If I Did Otherwise.

In '71 Or '72 I Returned To New Orleans And Stayed There. I Started Cooking Louisiana Food. Of All The Things I Had Cooked, It Was The Best-and It Was My Heritage.

I Opened My Own Restaurant When I Was 17. I Went Broke, Then Traveled Around The Country, Learning About Different Kinds Of Foods, Had Three Other Restaurants That Went Broke. It Didn't All Start Just A Few Years Ago!

I Wait For The Next Opportunity To Have Something To Do With Food. If I Get Rested, My Mind Just Starts Creating New Dishes - Click, Click, Click.
