“I enjoy cooking and giving what I can to my customers, and, in turn, my customers don’t just enjoy giving me money, they enjoy receiving what I have given them. Once we’ve established a rapport, we’re absolute equals in my restaurant. But I guess I shouldn’t expect newcomers to understand this. In all fairness, they’re right and I’m the asshole, because my way is hardly the traditional you-give-me-money-I-give-you-a-bagel. I want a relationship.”
- After watching the documentary I Like Killing Flies about the author of this quote Kenny Shopsin, I find myself intrigued and can’t wait to read his book Eat Me: The Food and Philosophy of Kenny Shopsin
