There's a point of no return when you're cooking tomatoes. A little too much heat, a little too long in the pot, and you lose that sense of fresh ripeness that makes tomatoes so great.

Days off are few and far between in the restaurant business. But on an hour off, I like to have a glass of wine with my wife.

I really like working in television and I like exploring a character over a longer period of time, and I like the consistency of television.

I love taking things out of context and playing with them and chopping up rules.
