"Coffee just moved the needles in a way that no other topic ever has. People were just so engaged after my first article, and I was really interested in that. People really don't know a lot about coffee." [5:15] -- Oliver Strand on THE FOOD SEEN
"I try to make things as simple as they can be, and as best as they can be- whether it's for the restaurant or my cookbook." [28:15] -- Melia Marden on THE FOOD SEEN
"Restaurant work is not like clerical work or office work... a restaurant is like a little military operation. If one person doesn't show up, it's harder to make the ship move." [46:00] -- Christophe Hille on THE FOOD SEEN
