"THE CHEF SAYS"

 

CAFÉ was sent a small book of quotes, quips, and words of wisdom from chefs who often disagree on issues ranging from training to taste preferences and trends.

 

Thomas Keller: "If I'm happy, then a great percentage of the customers will be happy, too"

 

Leah Chase:  "You have to be yourself when you are creating and cooking.  You do what you need to do and you do it to the best of your ability."

 

Apparently what chefs have to say is always opinionated and illuminating.  Check it out!  The book is published by Princeton Architectural Press and is available on Amazon.
