I can judge a restaurant by its bread: it winds me up that a lot of places buy pre-packed ones in and don't bother putting them in the oven to crisp them up again. And you shouldn't put bread on a side-plate: it needs to be pushed back into the centre of the table.

I like diner coffee.

I think naturally you want to judge things.

You judge people as you meet them.

I judge people very quickly.

When I'm on a location, I pick a restaurant that's close and private and eat all my meals there.

I know, whoever visits my restaurant, they have loved the food.

You go into any doughnut shop and look at three cops having coffee, I guarantee I look like one of them.

I pay attention to everything now - the taste of bread, the taste of water.
