"Talking up a storm about food is so easy for me, it’s second nature." ― Rocco DiSpirito Topic(s): Food More From Rocco DiSpirito "As a restaurateur, my job is to basically control the chaos and the drama. There’s always going to be chaos in the restaurant business." "I came literally to the table with a wealth of knowledge by simply understanding how food should taste." "Be curious, learn and read as much as you can about food. Don’t worry about making money. Focus on learning at various venues before you settle down for a steady position." More In Food "Habaneros have a great fruity flavor, but the challenge is that you have to deflect the heat in order to taste the flavor. If you don’t, you’re dead. They should really have a warning sign on them. Deflect the habanero’s heat by pairing it with sweet food."― Bobby Flay "I think you can tell the food is close to my heart, too, because I’m doing what I do best."― Giada De Laurentiis "I’ve been to therapists my whole life. I find the less attention I pay to food, the healthier I am. Any obsession is dangerous. And a whole country that’s obsessed with one thing, unless it’s, like, jeans, it’s very dangerous. Everyone’s obsessed right now with carbohydrates in this country. It’s ridiculous."― Christina Ricci
