: I think a great chef is one who can interprete and express their love for
: food and the infinite combinations without being pretentious
: and haughty. They can create anything working with a relatively
: bare cupboard to a fully stocked professional kitchen.
: They should make the diner feel special, taken care of..like
: the dishes were custom made for their palette.
: Their technique should come from their gut feeling about their
: love of food. It should walk the fine line between love and
: eroticism. The dishes should be a separate and distinct experience.
: I'm not a chef, but will become one. This is what I feel
: when I create a dish in the kitchen
Amen,
Tom
