You don't come into cooking to get rich.

I've never been a hands-on dad. I'm not ashamed to admit it, but you can't run a restaurant and be home for tea at 4:30 and bath and change nappies.

I've had a lot of success; I've had failures, so I learn from the failure.

If I relaxed, if I took my foot off the gas, I would probably die.

We are about creating a new wave of talent. We are the Manchester United of kitchens now. Am I playing full-time in the kitchen? I am a player-coach.

Kitchens are hard environments and they form incredibly strong characters.

I don't run restaurants that are out of control. We are about establishing phenomenal footholdings with talent.

I cook, I create, I'm incredibly excited by what I do, I've still got a lot to achieve.

They say cats have nine lives. I've had 12 already and I don't know how many more I'll have.

The problem with Yanks is they are wimps.
