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
I love doing demonstrations. I think to be a great chef you have to be a great teacher. I love doing classes with people who love food and enjoy food, bringing them all around one table so to speak. – Michael Symon
