Patience Is The Secret To Good Food.

First And Foremost, You Have To Remember That Restaurants Are Businesses And They Have To Stay In Business. And Though Everyone Thinks They Want Grass Fed Beef, Most People Actually Prefer The Taste Of Corn Fed - It Is Less Dry, More Marbled, And Less Gamey, Not To Mention Much Less Expensive Than Grass Fed.

When I'm Cooking For Myself, I Find That I Eat Almost Completely Vegetarian, Although I'm Not Vegetarian.

Balance Is Key In Cooking - You Want A Little Acid, A Little Sweet, A Little Savory - The Flavors Should Be Harmonious.

Find Combinations Of Flavors You Love And Buy The Best Quality Ingredients You Can Afford. Your Food Is Only Going To Be As Good As The Sum Of Its Parts, Like Anything Else.

I Had Decided I Wanted To Write About Food, And I Knew The Only Way To Do That Is To Speak With Authority, Which Meant Learning The Language And Knowing What That Experience Is Like.
