“Garlic is the king of the kitchen.”

“Pork fat rules!”

“You've got to have fun. Regardless of how you look at it, we're playing in a sandbox. It happens to be in the kitchen.”

“Kick it up a notch!”

“Life is not a remote. Get up and change it yourself.”

“I'm not a fancy cook. My food is not fancy.”

“If you don't follow your dream, who will?”

“I realized that I was not a 9-to-5 guy. I was a 5-to-9 guy. I was a worker.”

“Food is very representative of a city's culture. In order to really get to know a place and the people, you've got to eat the food.”

“Cooking is not a job, it's a passion.”

“Bam!”

“Oh, yeah, babe.”
