"Fashion doesn't interest me as a medium. Style always interests me. As a chef, you don't cook generic [food], you have a style." [19:00]
"I wouldn't trade my experience for anything. It made me who I am. For every scar story I can tell you 10-15 camaraderie stories. There's a sense of love in the kitchen that you can't describe to people that aren't a part of our industry. That's why I stick up for my team." [30:00]
