“You used to learn through osmosis, because a chef would never tell you anything. Now, things are different.”
“Craig Claiborne single handedly created the vocabulary for food criticism in America.”
“I had never been in a supermarket before I came to this country. They didn’t exist [in France]…. as a chef, I want to buy good product above everything else.”
“If you go into the business to become famous, you’re bound to have some profound disappointments.”
