    It should be said that this is Preston Clark. His father, Patrick Clark was one of the original influential American Chef's, during the 80s and 90s. He was one of the titans that took America out of the shadow of French expats and Pineapple ham and helped form our own modern food identity. Patrick Clark was right up there with Charlie Palmer, Jeremiah Tower, Tom Collichio and Charlie Trotter. He was sadly taken from us too soon and often gets over looked. Pick up his posthumously published book "cooking with Patrick clark" if you can

    • @arancourt5623
      @arancourt5623 7 місяців тому

      Caviar is usually the "jewel" of menu, its that extra mile to wow and excite, but in this case being a raw bar, and everything is seafood, I think caviar would just be lost among all the other premium things being presented, and would almost be a throwaway that wouldn't add much.

      @@InMyGlamEra no, a lot of times you have executive chefs who just make menu changes without input from anyone in the kitchen except themselves or their sous.

    It's great to hear a chef both recognize and articulate the fact that for the vast majority of restaurant employees, it's just a job, they're there for the money and to provide for themselves and their families. Far too many chefs fall into the trap of telling people" you're being paid in experience" or " for the honor of working for such a great chef".
