Don't put too many chefs to work. Sometimes they get too involved in the ingredients and are of no help.

Kitchens are so important. They're the heart of everything.

I'm a chef, I own restaurants, and there's a behavior in the kitchen you have to have.

Chefs are nutters. They're all self-obsessed, delicate, dainty, insecure little souls and absolute psychopaths. Every last one of them.

I miss being fawned over by restaurateurs and chefs.

The kitchen may not get cleaned, and I have to accept that. I do the important things.

When you look at a kitchen, you tend to see that the people who are doing really well are those who have worked with the same chef or stayed in one restaurant for a significant amount of time.

I hate kitchens. I don't understand these enormous American kitchens that take up half the living room and then they just order pizza.

You've got to be in your kitchens, or it all falls apart.

There's a bond among a kitchen staff, I think. You spend more time with your chef in the kitchen than you do with your own family.
