I've had to do a few of these types of demos in my day, and I always preferred to do the work quickly, efficiently, and let the chef field any questions. A lot of people don't realize the intense time pressure most cooks are under for nearly the entirety of their shift, Eugenio def had a dozen other things he needed to get done over the next couple hours.

      Momofuku is another hipster Michelin wanna be high end restaurant that offers less for more, total styles and zero substance. The authentic Peking duck cost 3 times less and tastes miles better than this cocky Asian Gordon Ramsey wanna be restaurant( I.e David Kim). Another overpriced restaurant that won’t survive COVID and he currently crying that government won’t helps him.
