If You Slow It Down,

Cooking Is Like Snow Skiing: If You Don't Fall At Least 10 Times, Then You're Not Skiing Hard Enough.

It's Never Too Late To Get Good At Something.

I Was Always A Kid Trying To Make A Buck. I Borrowed A Dollar From My Dad, Went To The Penny Candy Store, Bought A Dollar's Worth Of Candy, Set Up My Booth, And Sold Candy For Five Cents Apiece. Ate Half My Inventory, Made $2.50, Gave My Dad Back His Dollar.

I Know How Lucky I Am. I Never Take It For Granted. In This Country [usa], Anything Can Happen - Anybody Can Be What They Want To Be. All I Ever Wanted Was To Be A Good Husband And Father, A Good Chef, And To Have My Own Restaurant. And The Celebrity Was Never Expected. Wouldn't Have Even Dared Dream Of It. And Here I Am. So Anyone's Dreams Can Come True. And I'm Very, Very Grateful For Everything That's Come My Way. I Thank Everyone Who Enjoys What I Do.

I Get A Lot Of My Inspiration From My Family, But I Never Got To Meet My Dad's Dad.
