I wanted to be a literary writer, so I wrote story after story and sent them to 'The New Yorker.'

One thing that improved my cooking skills was being a poor student in California... If you don't have much money, you have to learn to cook.

Catering is extremely demanding financially and physically. It's a business.

I cannot cook to save my life. I'm really frighteningly useless, when you get down to it.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.

I still find it almost impossible to relax for more than one day at a time.
