I always say that I don't believe I'm a chef. I try to be a storyteller.

Chef Michel Richard is always at the top of his game.

Roberto Donna is a great Italian chef.

A cocktail can be made by the bartender. But the cocktail also can be made by the chef.

I believe in tradition and innovation, authenticity and passion.

I've been a cook all my life, but I am still learning to be a good chef. I'm always learning new techniques and improving beyond my own knowledge because there is always something new to learn and new horizons to discover.
