New Yorkers think they have everything, all the best art and music. But really L.A. is a better place.

I fell in love with food because of my mother. So, I will definitely be sharing and expanding more recipes from my culture (as well as many other cultures), and will be sharing recipes that I have experienced from my whole culinary life.

It's easier being a judge than a competitor. As a judge, you don't have any risks. That makes it much more enjoyable.

Nutrition is just so important to me, mostly especially for children.

A lot of chefs are traditional and do it very well. But the ones who are the most successful are the ones who change things. That is why someone like Heston Blumenthal is a genius.

There is no value with just one restaurant or with one person. The brand has to be bigger than the person.

You can eat an omelet at midnight, at lunchtime, all day long. It's perfect for every occasion.

For example, you can eat a Caesar salad and say, Wow, I ate so healthy today. You forget there was a quarter-cup of oil in there, and all the calories are from fat. So it's better if you eat a grilled chicken breast, some steamed brown rice, and a little salad with balsamic vinegar on top.

Television in the '80s was very limited. There was no Food Network. When I opened Spago, I had the kitchen in the dining hall. It was probably the first restaurant to do so. The dining scene became more casual. All these cooking shows have transformed our profession one-hundred percent.

People are visual and hands on learners.

Stay away from iodized table salt. It's just bad and doesn't help food taste good.

A good chef has to be a manager, a businessman and a great cook. To marry all three together is sometimes difficult.

One of the things I've found now, not just for television, but in the restaurant, is that you have many anxious chefs, who know how to cook twenty recipes really well, but they don't have a good foundation for other things.

I grew up so poor in Austria that we never took a vacation with my family.

It was a revolution, but now it is an evolution. People know more ingredients, people know more techniques, and people look for more ingredients they've never looked for before. In the '80s, you couldn't find raw tuna in any restaurant that wasn't Japanese. Now, you can't find any restaurant without it or sashimi.

I love strong flavors too. Like I don't mind if it looks clean and clear and you know what you are eating if it has Italian, Chinese or Japanese flavor I love them all.

When I was 27, if I didn't put 15 things in one dish I wasn't happy.

For me, I don't expect to have a really amazing meal each time I dine out. Having a good meal with your loved ones - that's what makes the experience.
