Turning the Kitchen

The key to maintaining a harmonious atmosphere during both pressure- packed and laid-back times is to understand that a kitchen is all about the people who work there.

The kitchen can be a hot, tight, inhospitable place to work, with oil spitting, ovens radiating, fans buzzing, pans clanging, and servers demanding. Amidst the controlled chaos, a team of cooks must pull together, remain calm, and assemble a myriad of hot, tepid, and cold dishes. At other times, the kitchen has a quiet, breezy, and casual feel.

Keeping Up with the Masters

“The most important lesson I learned when I passed the Master of Wine exam is that wine can never truly be mastered.”

For many years now, whenever I see a particular gentleman who is one of the most respected and well-known Master Sommeliers in the country, he quickly gets around to asking me the same question: “What’s new?” Early on, I would always think, “Why is he asking me this? Is this a test to see how smart I am?
