As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, one of the great things about being part of the food industry is getting to see what goes on behind scenes at restaurants – the controlled chaos (or sometimes uncontrolled chaos) that results in the food that is brought to your table.

In New York, we had approximately 450 square feet in the East Village (which was the largest apartment that we’d ever had in NYC).
