People Want Honest, Flavourful Food, Not Some

For Me, The Kitchen Is The Most Special Room In The House. It's A Place For Adventure - Not Drudgery, But Discovery, Sharing And Showing Off With Friends, Trying New Ideas.

People Who Hardly Ever Cook At All, Suddenly At The Holidays, Feel Like It's Their Responsibility To Not Only Cook Dinner For Large Groups Of People Suddenly, But To Serve Things That Are Fussy Or Fancy Or Formal. And I Don't Think That's What Anybody Really Wants, Especially If You're Not Good At It.

I Think That Curiosity Happened On These Reviews Where I Was Just A Guest Of The Reviewer, Because It Introduced Me To New Cuisines And To The Idea Of Cooking As A Mechanism For Studying Other Cultures And Understanding Other Parts Of The World.

The Best Way To Learn Is Live, In Person, Cooking, Feeling, Smelling And Tasting, But Tv Is The Second-best Thing To That; It's A Halfway Facsimile.

Oh, Did I Tell You I Have A Cookbook? I Have A Cookbook Deal.
