I could have used one or two more years gaining more skills… Once you get to a certain level, it’s hard to go back.” [“When I’ve made people sous chefs in my kitchens that don’t have the skill level, it backfires – on them because they’re gunning for a job they aren’t ready for and on me because they can’t lead my cooks.” [“After 5 years of working with a chef you don’t know who’s food your cooking any more – you’ve morphed together and hopefully have a synergy you’re working with.” [–chef Missy Robbins on Chef’s Story
