I love cooking. I'm in the restaurant business.

In the restaurant business, there's the concept of pivot. Pivot to the stove, pivot to the refrigerator.

It is halfway true that if you are involved in a family coffeehouse you don't have a life.

If anything is good for pounding humility into you permanently, it's the restaurant business.

In the restaurant business, you learn quickly there's no margin in having enemies.

The restaurant business is something that you have to treat like a baby. You have to constantly be there. You can't trust it to anybody else, because no one's going to love it like you do.
