I try to stay away from the craft services table on set! That's probably why I am able to still get work in this business: I stay away from junk food.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being on set is really hard because there's craft service.
In L.A., you can put out a craft-service table anywhere, and it's no big deal. But in New York, people who walk by it on the street get really angry about it.
Honestly, all the sweets and bad stuff on set don't really call to me because I'm working so much. I've trained myself to stay away from sugar.
At a flea market I always head for the junk jewelry table first.
I will not serve lunch to anyone in the middle of a workday. I rarely rearrange my furniture or cabinets; once I find a drawer for something, it stays there. I don't garden. And I don't knit.
As a restaurateur, my job is to basically control the chaos and the drama. There's always going to be chaos in the restaurant business.
I've been in the service industry. I've bar-tended. I've waited tables, and I've worked at pizza places; I've made pizza. I've had a lot of jobs, and many of them were in the food service industry.
Don't put too many chefs to work. Sometimes they get too involved in the ingredients and are of no help.
I eat a lot. I'm a big sandwich dude. Turkey, mayonnaise, mustard, cheese, yes. I love craft services.
I'm a restaurant junkie.
