Respect For Food Is Respect For Life,

They Know What My Standards Are. They Know What I Need And How To Get It To Me, And They Know How To Communicate With Me If For Some Reason They Can't Get It.

Once You Understand The Foundations Of Cooking - Whatever Kind You Like, Whether It's French Or Italian Or Japanese - You Really Don't Need A Cookbook Anymore.

Its Not About Passion. Passion Is Something That We Tend To Overemphasize, That We Certainly Place Too Much Importance On. Passion Ebbs And Flows. To Me, It's About Desire. If You Have Constant, Unwavering Desire To Be A Cook, Then U'll Be A Great Cook.

I Think That You’ve Got To Make Something That Pleases You And Hope That Other People Feel The Same Way.

For Me, Thats One Of The Important Things About Cooking. What Was Good Enough Yesterday May Not Be Good Enough Today.
