It is very important that when you put something on the grill, you leave it in place to cook. If you move it around too quickly, chances are it is going to stick.

My partner and I are looking at several locations on Park Avenue South and Midtown for a new restaurant space.

I was hired as a sous-chef at a restaurant on the Upper East Side. The chef liked to drink - some mornings we would find him sleeping. Two weeks after its opening, I became the chef. I was 20 years old, and way over my head. I had to hire the cooks and do the menus.

Nothing goes perfectly, especially when you're opening a restaurant.

Lime juice makes things taste fresher. I use it for drinks, salsas, relishes, soups, and sauces. You want some give to your limes - firmness means the inside is dry - and they'll stay softer longer if you don't refrigerate them.

An instant-read thermometer is your best bet for making sure that meat and fish are cooked to the proper temperature.

One of the things that happens in my house on the holidays is after dessert, we sit down to a very ambitious men-versus-women game of Trivial Pursuit. It's brutal. And there's a trophy.

'The Food Network' was just starting in New York, and I was getting lots of attention from Mesa Grill. They had no money, so if you couldn't get there by subway, you couldn't be on. It wasn't like TV was something I really wanted to do - but I knew it would be great publicity for my restaurants.

I still love making hamburgers on the grill. I guess whenever I eat them childhood memories come up for me.

I live in New York and I'm in New York basically all the time. I spend a lot of my time in my restaurants, and I feel like that's why they're successful.
Bobby Flay
My contribution I hope is to get people to eat full-flavored food. If I could come away with that alone, that would be a fantastic accomplishment. I'm also very proud of being a very American chef.
Bobby Flay
I think New York has the most diverse and best quality representation of so many different cuisines at all levels.
Bobby Flay
Charcoal or gas. Both give excellent results, so choose the one that best suits your style of cooking.
Bobby Flay
I probably use my chef's knives more than any other tool in the kitchen. I'm not married to a particular brand, because they all work, they all have sharp blades.
Bobby Flay
Go vegetable heavy. Reverse the psychology of your plate by making meat the side dish and vegetables the main course.
Bobby Flay
If you aren't nervous about your passion, you aren't passionate about it.
Bobby Flay
I think everybody at some point in time has thought to themselves, I have a really great idea for a restaurant.
Bobby Flay
In those days, the main requirement to be on the Food Network was being able to get there by subway.
Bobby Flay
I guess I fell into cooking.

When I'm on television, I think that I appeal to the everyday guy, 'cause that's who I am. The guys who go to the football games on the weekends are my viewers, for sure.
