His quotes are always like the Native America dude from Mystery Men. "You must master your rage, before your rage masters you". Basically just extremely obvious ideas.
Joe also didn't get 3 Michelin Stars, train multiple Michelin Star chefs, get bored having one of the best restaurants in the world, and grab his nuts while he gave them their stars back.
I think the reason he’s so intimidating is because of how calm he is. To be around someone of that level. It’s like he personifies the art of cooking itself and the entire thing stares back at you.
A grandmaster of his art with all the proper skills and techniques which elevates him. He has the style, the reputation and the wisdom. Anyone would be quite lucky to learn from a true master of his craft.
He reminds me of Hannibal lector from silence of the lambs. In his presence, his way of talking, taking pauses, staring into the soul and his confidence and the knowledge he radiates. A true legend.
It's so humbling to see him admit his mistake when someone corrected him. He actually seems like a really nice guy tbh. He's just passionate about what he does.
@@therza1133 He was saying more people would understand the word chowder, which yes is a good point. But she reminded him that it's a French restaurant and that Bisque should be taken as understood in that setting, which he actually agreed with! 👍👌
9:08 the bisque part. Makes me smile and just laugh a little when a legend like Marco gets corrected by a contestant and doesn't lose his cool. Owns it like a true legend. Awesome to see
@@fayedunaway8 "Bisque" is a french term that probably isn't known by the common person eating at a restaurant, so Marco was questioning whether they should be using the term "bisque" over the easier to understand "chowder". However, the contestant correctly pointed out that the restaurant was itself french and therefore a customer should be prepared for or familiar with french terms.
Actually, A bisque is a creamy seafood soup that is normally made from Shell fish and is puree’ed. A chowder is a cream type of soup where the seafood is not puree’ed and may also have vegetables in it and is thickened by a Roux or Beurre manie(butter and flower blend). So it’s not a matter of it being in a French restaurant there is actually a difference between the two.
Watching Australia Master chef is so encouraging, no unnecessary drama, everybody support each other, no shaming, no blaming just good people doing their best with healthy environment.
There is a lot of drama in master chef Australia in several seasons but this is still true, plus the level of the chefs seems to be higher than any other country’s masterchef
I did NOT kick that pregnant woman. She chose to be kicked, that was her choice. I feel like the thing happening here is that you stare into marcos eyes, you feel weak, but when you are able to break that your confidence will increase a lot and you will feel the pressure rising since you have risen your own expectations.
That's BS.... People have a responsibility to treat others right. If Tracy had a responsibility not to feel intimidated, then Marco had one not to project his arrogance onto her.... You can't wash one hand without the other!!! Sure, there is the old saying " you can't control how people treat you, but you can control how you allow them to"... That doesn't negate the fact that someone actually has made you feel a certain way!!! Just because you like someone doesn't mean they get a free pass to be a bully. No one deserves to be intimidated, but they sure have a right to feel it when it happens!
There's a huge lesson here. To be this much of a legend, and I never once saw him do anything but try to lift others up. He encouraged them and saw the best in them. He was actively searching for the good, not the bad. That's inspirational.
He said it himself in an interview (the one with tony bourdain) that he doesn't believe in "belittling" people, but inspiring people. And he was also referring to Gordon ramsay lol
@@Blasian24343 He says that now in the wisdom of old age. But when he was younger and Gordon was his apprentice he was known for his cutting breakdowns of food and people. Don't be blind to where Gordan learnt his hotheadedness in the kitchen from. Both of them have grown since them though
Arguably the GOAT. He's SO heavy and it's not because of some bullshit. Marco is the real deal. He's kind in his old age, but still THE most intimidating Chef alive.
The most intimidating thing about Marco is his stare, part from that he's a soft spoken kind hearted man and even when hes insulting you, it's always so proper and polite.
“You have a point, thank you for the correction” understands he was wrong, takes the correction like a man. And walks off. How can anyone hate Marco, it’s impossible.
It's fun to see the enjoyment Marco gets out of intimidating people for the sake of reading their body language so he can interact with each of them personally.
The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world.

His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood.

He’s like a human can opener. He can get anyone to open up and not because he’s strong arming his way in, but rather because he makes them confident enough to speak it. Brilliant, honestly.
@@AshGorallhis sense of empathy is amazing. But this is what we should all aspire to be in whatever we do - reach a stage in our professional and personal lives where we have accumulated enough battle scars to relate to others and to pass our wisdom to them
because everyone is desperate for his validation … so anything positive will basically take you back to a little kid getting loved by their mum for the first time and make you weep
I like that line. "I'll know when you WANT to cook" because having passion in cooking is better in some ways than being a perfect cook. It means you have potential to learn more.
Marco looks very intimidating, but I met him and he's one of the nicest guys around. He has shown this in MC as well. Everyone is afraid of him, but he has never, ever insulted someone or put them down. On the contrary, he has elevated them constantly.
He’s the real boss. Honest, professional, no real ego, does a simple and beautiful job, the way he knows best. Seems a really nice passionate guy who’d be great to go for a beer with.
The more I watch him the more I realise how kind of a person he actually is. He clearly just wants people to see and reach their potential, it's amazing
He reminds me of a professor I had in college, I was equally terrified of disappointing him but also learned so much from his constant questioning. Gentle giant Marco is, and top class educator.
He's intimidating but the truest professional that has ever cooked. He's not being abusive or insulting but incredibly motivating and bringing the best out of the contestants.
Him getting corrected by the staff about the bisque at that French restaurant was hilarious but also awesome to see that even MPW isn't beyond admitting when he's wrong, despite his authoritativeness.
Hells Kitchen Raw episodes have been uploaded of one of the US seasons (just the dinner services but still 40ish minutes long each) and without the dramatic music and confessional cuts, it's easy to see why Gordon gets frustrated. Hell, I was getting frustrated. Worth a watch :)
Honestly Marco is a chef you can just listen to with anything, enjoyed watching his cooking masterclasses and these clips here, show how appreciative and supporting he is of people.
The Legendary Mentor who trained the Legendary Gordon Ramsay. Yes! He's Marco Pierre White, the real freaking deal and Master Jedi of the Culinary World! Legend!
You can see the passion Marco has for these aspiring chefs. Hes honest but uplifting. When he tasted the lemon chicken dish, he complimented first and THEN gave minor criticism and said "The crisps. Just a little bit of salt." First instilling confidence but keeping it level as to not create over confidence and ego for the woman. The world needs more Marcos around.
Oh Marco. I thought you weren't nice but man like he chose to taste Tracy's dish and complimented. Not forgetting how he calmed her down first and later asked her not to hide tears. That's wholesome. That's a teaching skill. So beautiful and elegant!
this guy just radiates "genius" energy, he's just so overwhelmingly intimidating when just standing still, yet he's so calm and gentle, let alone how humble he is, when one of his first lines is "I don't expect you to know me" when being the literal pinnacle of culinary art, when people describe being able to feel somebodies presence he is exactly what I think of, he feels like he's 12 foot tall but like he brings people up to the clouds instead of going down to their level, just unbelievable edit: "happy chefs cook happy food" wow hearing that from this GIANT of a genius is so heartwarming
A king does not have to say he's king. Marco is the embodiment of this idea. He doesn't need to shout or demand attention. He's just there and you know it. Regardless of how his past was, at this age, he's transcended another level of... presence. Also, unlike his past, he seems to have a lot more empathy. He knows who is feeling what.
I love how Marco’s fiddling around with all the food when the presenters talk to the contestants at their stations, you can see he really adheres to his philosophy of being as in touch and personal with the ingredients as you can
Not a scary man, he wants others to excel, he does not humiliate but passes on his knowledge and passion with passion. He had your back. I would feel honored to learn from him and beg for his honesty.
Marco is sure quite a bit theatrical, but I love his approach. The man knows he's too next-level for shouting and throwing fits, his hard stare alone is intimidating enough. But he also knows when to stop pressing and give a little encouragement.
Really interesting. You can tell where and who Gordon Ramsey learned a lot of his knowledge and skill and style from. But the biggest difference is approach. Gordon just pushes…without hesitation. Marco always “asks” first before he pushes. Such a difference in style. Granted it’s a show but their pushing and “tempers” when cooking is real and I sense that Marco gains just a tad more positive morale and respect from his cooks.
If Gordon is a white shark,Marco is megaladon. What a person. He didn’t make me cry,it was my choice to cry. Such an inspirational human. His quotes are so simple yet precise,just as chief’s knife
"If you look at my hand, what do you see? You see a palm. I see four knuckles. We're looking at the same thing but we see something very different. Never allow the obvious to blind you." Gosh I love the way he said this.
One thing I've always felt from Marco is that yes, he's intimidating as hell but he never abuses his power. He's really a gentle soul and I can feel that even from watching videos of him. I can definitely see how Gordon picked that up.
Dayum. *Less than 3mins in* & already soooo much wisdom, profundity, & awesomeness! Including 2 of the greatest quotes (certainly pertaining to cooking) I've *ever* heard. In the first 3 minutes!!
@9:12-9:22 what a fantastic moment of humanity. That moment where she smiles and their eyes meet and they both know without saying. 9:34 Have you ever had one of those moments? You probably did and that's why that moment is so great. Marco softens and smiles, " You have a point. Thank you for the correction." How often do you hear that coming out of that guy's mouth? Lol
Honestly, it’s easy to be intimidated by Marco. He’s the man who made Gordon Ramsay into who he is today. He’s the youngest chef to win 3 Michelin stars, then give them back. This man is the real deal. He’s probably forgotten more than we’ll ever know. What’s even worse is he has this calm anger which is far more scary than Gordon’s yelling.
Marco is the only Chef i can relate to with how he chooses his words, analogies, and outlook. I'm a visual artist (not a hobby, its my living and I take it extremely seriously) and I've been suprised to learn how cooking and the arts (hence culinary wrestling I suppose!) overlap in soooo many ways, its really quite beautiful.
Marco is the absolute real deal Classic Chéf, he uplifts, criticize & instructs you to make the best out of yourself - all at the same time, it's remarkable! I would be delighted and honored to work for and learn from him!
I've worked with people who have Marco's kind of presence and it is absolutely intimidating. Most people tend to deflate and underestimate themselves. Some people go the opposite direction and puff out their chest. The trick is to just trust yourself and treat them like any other person. Set your sights on doing the best you can and learning no matter the outcome.
@@dh4767 Marco asked her what she's calling her dish. She said "it's a bisque". Marco then asked her if diners would understand what a bisque is, instead of calling her dish a chowder. She said "Yes, this is a French restaurant"; implying that people who go in would most likely know French food and therefore know what a bisque is.
I'm starting to understand what people mean when they say someone's got a certain presence. He certainly has one, and it is much more intimidating than anything I've ever seen in my life.
Many people that come across as intimidating are very kind underneath it all. I once worked for NFL great Art Donovan. He had a great sense of humor, but to employees he seemed to be very gruff. He actually was a big sweet teddy bear. I enjoy working with people like Marco and Art. They truly care about and want for you to be your best.
I love marco, i admire him so much. He just wants everyone to be the best version they can and to be truly honest with themselves in what they do. He is remarkable 😊.
We are lucky enough today to have so many great chefs like Gordon Ramsay , Heston Blumenthal , Rene Redzepi etc etc.. we were also lucky to have greats like Michel Roux , Anthony Bourdain etc etc but we are extremely blessed to have Marco. There will never be someone like him. He transcended all other chefs not only because of his food but because of his outlook on life , his Philosophy his ambitions that drove him and he shares that. Blessed are we who have intelligence enough to absorb that. Seeing this video and how he motivates people , raises them up , helps them grow , gives them confidence even when they have none is something beyond amazing and feels super wonderful. Something like that can only be achieved by someone like Marco.
"When a student is ready the Master appears." Marco is epitome of a veteran and a leader. He doesn't has to affirm authority, because the man whole demeanor demands respect. Also teaches and gives great advice's, tips which you can actually apply in any aspects of life.
@@NoriSausrus Beat the final boss & complete the game. Then play the game again on NG+, where you then unlock the actual final boss and thus witness the true ending.
I like how he is "scary" and intimidating, but he's also supportive, and you can see the kindness in his eyes. You can tell that he Wants them to succeed.
The algorithm suggested this video for me, despite never looking for anything cooking related. I clicked it for the background noise, i got stuck, watched several more Marco videos, got a used book of him for about 4€, and now, 2 months, later I'm already a way better home cook. And the most important: cooking finally became fun!
Marco was pure theatre! Magnificent theatre! A chef a rebel a contrarian and a mentor. Watching this again - so many years after the original - demonstrates what great TV can be.
Many people say he is intimidating and I get that. This man seems like a shark, but he seems also as inspiring as intimidating. If not way more inspiring. You hear this man talk and you immediately notice that this guy knows what he is talking about and that you will learn so much about cooking and yourself as a cook if you keep listening to him.
@9:08 it's moments like this where someone's response can tell you an abundance about that person. Alot of successful people would have thought of some brain dead comeback, but Marco realized the lady had a good point and accepted that. Honestly that's the kind of attitude you need to be great. You can't always think you're right, you'll never learn. Even at his level of success he's still willing to be wrong. It wasn't a major point or conversation, but the way he responded and handled it was. Marco is great 💯👏🏼
The biggest mistake contestants made was not using Knorr stock pots and cubes to season their food, but I can't fault them because it was their choice.
Imagine your presence in a room having such a profound effect on others. Like Marco doesn't even have to say anything, he just peruses around the room and people are terrified 😂 absolute legend
Imposes intimidation, puts fear into people, instils discipline but understands the limit of that fear where going too far into terror inhibits a chefs ability to think, focus, compose oneself and ultimately, cook. The second he saw that woman falling apart in terror of his presence, he softened with a few encouraging words to placate that terror & snapped her back to her senses and realise she only need fear him as a head chef, not as a teacher, not as a human being. That is the sign of a great leader, and in all honesty, a good father!
"You should never hide your tears. Trust me." The man is a poet.

What I love about Marco is how he constantly elevates people. Refreshing, compared to certain other judges (Joe!).
Because Marco is actually a chef, unlike Joe.
I don’t even know why joe’s on the show tbh he’s not a chef and doesn’t even try to give constructive criticism

Hells Kitchen Raw episodes have been uploaded of one of the US seasons (just the dinner services but still 40ish minutes long each) and without the dramatic music and confessional cuts, it's easy to see why Gordon gets frustrated. Hell, I was getting frustrated. Worth a watch :)
@@TimberjagiAs an american, I hate it. I just wanna see him rate food and help restaurants get back on their feet
One thing I've always admired about Marco is that he's a firm man, but not in a destructive way.
He builds, he doesn't destroy confidence.
"I prefer your smile to your tears". What a beautiful thing to say to someone who produced a beautiful dish but just had a crisis of confidence.
Honestly Marco is a chef you can just listen to with anything, enjoyed watching his cooking masterclasses and these clips here, show how appreciative and supporting he is of people.
How can he be both the most intimidating guy and the kindest person at the same time?
The Legendary Mentor who trained the Legendary Gordon Ramsay. Yes! He's Marco Pierre White, the real freaking deal and Master Jedi of the Culinary World! Legend!
There is no fry , only do
*Grand Master Jedi.
@@sallygoater4657 💀💀💀💀 ‘fry’
You can see the passion Marco has for these aspiring chefs. Hes honest but uplifting. When he tasted the lemon chicken dish, he complimented first and THEN gave minor criticism and said "The crisps. Just a little bit of salt." First instilling confidence but keeping it level as to not create over confidence and ego for the woman. The world needs more Marcos around.
Oh Marco. I thought you weren't nice but man like he chose to taste Tracy's dish and complimented. Not forgetting how he calmed her down first and later asked her not to hide tears. That's wholesome. That's a teaching skill. So beautiful and elegant!
As people grow older, they might let go of many things they were attached to when they were young, and they will become gentle and empathetic.
Marco is like a friendly dragon. Love him!
this guy just radiates "genius" energy, he's just so overwhelmingly intimidating when just standing still, yet he's so calm and gentle, let alone how humble he is, when one of his first lines is "I don't expect you to know me" when being the literal pinnacle of culinary art, when people describe being able to feel somebodies presence he is exactly what I think of, he feels like he's 12 foot tall but like he brings people up to the clouds instead of going down to their level, just unbelievable
edit: "happy chefs cook happy food" wow hearing that from this GIANT of a genius is so heartwarming
27:24 the closeup on Marcos face as he’s shouting “WHERES MY KINGFISH WHERES MY KINGFISH” is hysterical
The Australian equivalent of “WHERE’S THE LAMB SAUCE?!”
@@steamyninja8881 Or "DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE"
A king does not have to say he's king. Marco is the embodiment of this idea. He doesn't need to shout or demand attention. He's just there and you know it.
Regardless of how his past was, at this age, he's transcended another level of... presence. Also, unlike his past, he seems to have a lot more empathy. He knows who is feeling what.
I love how Marco’s fiddling around with all the food when the presenters talk to the contestants at their stations, you can see he really adheres to his philosophy of being as in touch and personal with the ingredients as you can
"Mother nature is the true artist."
10:34 “Lets do the job. SERVICE SEND IT!”
*ROCK MUSIC INTENSIFIES*
Marco gives many compliments, which gives hope. That is very pleasant to watch!
Not a scary man, he wants others to excel, he does not humiliate but passes on his knowledge and passion with passion. He had your back. I would feel honored to learn from him and beg for his honesty.
Marco is sure quite a bit theatrical, but I love his approach. The man knows he's too next-level for shouting and throwing fits, his hard stare alone is intimidating enough. But he also knows when to stop pressing and give a little encouragement.
That man is both terrifying and inspiring at the same time.
Marco gives me goosebumps when he encourages the chefs. He is on another level of leadership. He is the epitome of a master chef.
"Don't force it, make it. Sensational" Gave me goosebumps
Really interesting. You can tell where and who Gordon Ramsey learned a lot of his knowledge and skill and style from. But the biggest difference is approach. Gordon just pushes…without hesitation. Marco always “asks” first before he pushes. Such a difference in style. Granted it’s a show but their pushing and “tempers” when cooking is real and I sense that Marco gains just a tad more positive morale and respect from his cooks.
They're both Idiots to work for!
To be fair this is older Marco, younger Marco was probably a lot more brash.
@@willsk3122 yeah hes become more patient and kind in his old age. Young Marco was like a ice-storm, ferocious and chilling to the bone.
If Gordon is a white shark,Marco is megaladon. What a person. He didn’t make me cry,it was my choice to cry. Such an inspirational human. His quotes are so simple yet precise,just as chief’s knife
"Never allow the obvious to blind you, look at it for what it is" - Marco Pierre White
"If you look at my hand, what do you see? You see a palm. I see four knuckles. We're looking at the same thing but we see something very different. Never allow the obvious to blind you."
Gosh I love the way he said this.
He's simply the Shakespeare of Cooking. A true General of the ages. So Elite, yet so grounded, it almost defies belief.
One thing I've always felt from Marco is that yes, he's intimidating as hell but he never abuses his power. He's really a gentle soul and I can feel that even from watching videos of him. I can definitely see how Gordon picked that up.
10:35 is it just me or that this guitar riff just right after he gives the most hyped speech absolutely epic and motivating.
Marco present is straight up intimidating. But he has heart of gold to encourage contenders.
Dayum. *Less than 3mins in* & already soooo much wisdom, profundity, & awesomeness!
Including 2 of the greatest quotes (certainly pertaining to cooking) I've *ever* heard.
In the first 3 minutes!!
The moment with the ‘bisque’ correction was killing me lol. Marco can be a very funny guy despite his sometimes rough exterior.
@9:12-9:22 what a fantastic moment of humanity.
That moment where she smiles and their eyes meet and they both know without saying. 9:34
Have you ever had one of those moments?
You probably did and that's why that moment is so great.
Marco softens and smiles, " You have a point. Thank you for the correction."
How often do you hear that coming out of that guy's mouth? Lol
I really admire him, he's the type of a mentor that even if he's so scary, i'll stay...
Honestly, it’s easy to be intimidated by Marco. He’s the man who made Gordon Ramsay into who he is today. He’s the youngest chef to win 3 Michelin stars, then give them back. This man is the real deal. He’s probably forgotten more than we’ll ever know. What’s even worse is he has this calm anger which is far more scary than Gordon’s yelling.
Marco is the only Chef i can relate to with how he chooses his words, analogies, and outlook. I'm a visual artist (not a hobby, its my living and I take it extremely seriously) and I've been suprised to learn how cooking and the arts (hence culinary wrestling I suppose!) overlap in soooo many ways, its really quite beautiful.
Marco is the absolute real deal Classic Chéf, he uplifts, criticize & instructs you to make the best out of yourself - all at the same time, it's remarkable! I would be delighted and honored to work for and learn from him!
I've worked with people who have Marco's kind of presence and it is absolutely intimidating. Most people tend to deflate and underestimate themselves. Some people go the opposite direction and puff out their chest. The trick is to just trust yourself and treat them like any other person. Set your sights on doing the best you can and learning no matter the outcome.
9:16 love that Marco can admit that he can be corrected.
I agree, but I don’t understand the words Marco is saying just before she defines “bisque”
@@dh4767 Marco asked, "do you think people know what bisque is?"
@@dh4767 "Chowder or Bisque." They're both soups.
@@jandreid2023 and she replies, “A French restaurant”
What’s the point she made that Marco didn’t see before?
@@dh4767 Marco asked her what she's calling her dish. She said "it's a bisque". Marco then asked her if diners would understand what a bisque is, instead of calling her dish a chowder. She said "Yes, this is a French restaurant"; implying that people who go in would most likely know French food and therefore know what a bisque is.
Good heavens! The reference of seeing the hand from different angles brought tears to my eyes... what a level of professionalism!
I'm starting to understand what people mean when they say someone's got a certain presence. He certainly has one, and it is much more intimidating than anything I've ever seen in my life.
Many people that come across as intimidating are very kind underneath it all. I once worked for NFL great Art Donovan. He had a great sense of humor, but to employees he seemed to be very gruff. He actually was a big sweet teddy bear. I enjoy working with people like Marco and Art. They truly care about and want for you to be your best.
I love marco, i admire him so much. He just wants everyone to be the best version they can and to be truly honest with themselves in what they do.
He is remarkable 😊.
We are lucky enough today to have so many great chefs like Gordon Ramsay , Heston Blumenthal , Rene Redzepi etc etc.. we were also lucky to have greats like Michel Roux , Anthony Bourdain etc etc but we are extremely blessed to have Marco. There will never be someone like him. He transcended all other chefs not only because of his food but because of his outlook on life , his Philosophy his ambitions that drove him and he shares that. Blessed are we who have intelligence enough to absorb that. Seeing this video and how he motivates people , raises them up , helps them grow , gives them confidence even when they have none is something beyond amazing and feels super wonderful. Something like that can only be achieved by someone like Marco.
Good job editors! That speech at 9:36 to when he turns to green light service was sweet.
"When a student is ready the Master appears." Marco is epitome of a veteran and a leader. He doesn't has to affirm authority, because the man whole demeanor demands respect. Also teaches and gives great advice's, tips which you can actually apply in any aspects of life.
He has such a presence that people start having anxiety attacks just from him standing there
He is literally the final boss of cooking.
Noo Gordon is. Marco lost his Mojo
@@ratlakminMarco taught Gordon.
More like a secret boss that you unlocked after defeating the final boss
@@NoriSausrus Beat the final boss & complete the game. Then play the game again on NG+, where you then unlock the actual final boss and thus witness the true ending.
@@NoriSausrusthe final boss is Gordon and the secret boss is Marco?
He's doing what a true leader should do. Inspire not downgrading. Bravo Marco! La leggenda continua...
Marco stares at you like he is about to extract your soul just with his eyes.
I like how he is "scary" and intimidating, but he's also supportive, and you can see the kindness in his eyes. You can tell that he Wants them to succeed.
I was waiting for "WHERE'S MY KINGFISH?" and at 27:24, there it was. So satisfying.
His words are like instant tear jerkers. I swear he's the dad everyone needs
The algorithm suggested this video for me, despite never looking for anything cooking related.
I clicked it for the background noise, i got stuck, watched several more Marco videos, got a used book of him for about 4€, and now, 2 months, later I'm already a way better home cook. And the most important: cooking finally became fun!
Marco was pure theatre!
Magnificent theatre!
A chef a rebel a contrarian and a mentor.
Watching this again - so many years after the original - demonstrates what great TV can be.
Marco Pierre White is the best example of "Why do I hear boss music?"
This guy is the absolute FINAL BOSS of cooking, man what entertainment he is.. love it bring him back
Many people say he is intimidating and I get that. This man seems like a shark, but he seems also as inspiring as intimidating. If not way more inspiring. You hear this man talk and you immediately notice that this guy knows what he is talking about and that you will learn so much about cooking and yourself as a cook if you keep listening to him.
@9:08 it's moments like this where someone's response can tell you an abundance about that person. Alot of successful people would have thought of some brain dead comeback, but Marco realized the lady had a good point and accepted that. Honestly that's the kind of attitude you need to be great. You can't always think you're right, you'll never learn. Even at his level of success he's still willing to be wrong. It wasn't a major point or conversation, but the way he responded and handled it was. Marco is great 💯👏🏼
The biggest mistake contestants made was not using Knorr stock pots and cubes to season their food, but I can't fault them because it was their choice.
😂
Imagine your presence in a room having such a profound effect on others. Like Marco doesn't even have to say anything, he just peruses around the room and people are terrified 😂 absolute legend
Tracy and Marco P were so wholesome like a father reassuring a daughter
Imposes intimidation, puts fear into people, instils discipline but understands the limit of that fear where going too far into terror inhibits a chefs ability to think, focus, compose oneself and ultimately, cook. The second he saw that woman falling apart in terror of his presence, he softened with a few encouraging words to placate that terror & snapped her back to her senses and realise she only need fear him as a head chef, not as a teacher, not as a human being. That is the sign of a great leader, and in all honesty, a good father!
