"I realized how fragile life was."
"Most important thing is service."
"We [as human beings] need connection, emotions, and experiences, and food brings you that."
"Every single night I go to bed thinking 'Did I do everything I can to make people comfortable in here?'"
"Movement is the only thing that keeps things alive."
"Be what you feel comfortable with. Express yourself with your ideas, menu, interior… Forcing things will be more exhausting, difficult and stressful."
"This is food made by people, for people. This is really important."
