It is the best reward to be able to cook and please everyone's palate and create experiences for guests to treasure forever. As an immigrant, I always dreamed for my children to have a better life than mine. Seeing them educated and doing well is my greatest success. I don't think I had any setbacks. Life is a stone wall to which I add a brick everyday.
Preparation is the mortar.
The wall does not fall if the mortar is strong enough. I research and cook foods of the past. I specialize in terracotta cookery and food with an historical connection. We reinvent ourselves everyday and inspire others to do the same, through fine leadership and commitment. I own four restaurants and a cooking school.
