Go to the grocery store and buy better things. Buy quality, buy organic, buy natural, go to the farmers market. Immediately thats going to increase the quality of the food you make. – Michael Symon
Recipes are important but only to a point. Whats more important than recipes is how we think about food, and a good cookbook should open up a new way of doing just that. – Michael Symon
I dont think any other holiday embraces the food of the Midwest quite like Thanksgiving. Theres roasted meat and mashed potatoes. But being here is also about heritage. Cleveland is really a giant melting pot – not only is my family a melting pot, but so is the city. – Michael Symon
My restaurants are never opened on Thanksgiving I want my staff to spend time with their family if they can. My feeling is, if I cant figure out how to make money the rest of the year so that my workers can enjoy the holidays, then I dont deserve to be an owner. – Michael Symon
