I Think You Can Tell

In Order To Keep Your Husband, You Have To Make Time For Him. Rather Than Going Out To Dinner, I Like To Spend Time For Just The Two Of Us.

These Days It's Cool To Be Ethnic And To Be Different, But When I Was A Kid, It Was Not Cool - At All. My Friends Would Come Over And My Mom Would Make Crepes With Eggs, Stuffed With Mozzarella Cheese, Tomatoes And Spinach. And They'd Be Like, 'what Is This?'

Many Chefs Of A Certain Caliber Do Not See Me As A Chef. I Don't Have A Restaurant. They See Me As A Tv Food Personality, Not A Chef. I've Gotten Respect, Trust Me, They Respect Me, But I Think That I Can't Hit That Particular Level Of Respect From Them Until I Have A Successful Vegas Restaurant That Not Only Makes Money But Creates Unbelievable Food And A Fabulous Experience. I Don't Think People Think I Can Cook, And They Don't Think I Know What The Hell I'm Doing.

I Think You Can Tell The Food Is Close To My Heart, Too, Because I'm Doing What I Do Best.

I Grew Up In The Kitchen, Mostly With My Grandfather, My Mother And My Aunt Raffy.
