If You Have Extraordinary Bread And Extraordinary

Fortunately, I Knew The Cardinal Rule Of Getting On With One's Fellow Cooks. It Applies In Any Kitchen And Can Be Summed Up In Two Short Words: Bust Ass.

You Know, My Parents Had A Restaurant. And I Left Home, Actually, In 1949, When I Was 13 Years Old, To Go Into Apprenticeship.

Cooking Is The Art Of Adjustment.

If You Have Extraordinary Bread And Extraordinary Butter, It's Hard To Beat Bread And Butter.

Just Because I Am A Chef Doesn't Mean I Don't Rely On Fast Recipes. Indeed, We All Have Moments When, Pressed For Time, We'll Use A Can Of Tuna And A Tomato For A First Course. It's A Question Of Choosing The Right Recipes For The Rest Of The Menu.
