I grew up in Austria, and for me real comfort food is Wiener Schnitzel. Wiener Schnitzel and mashed potatoes because it reminds me of my youth… It reminds me when I grow up and it feels very comforting.

I believe that London is the most exciting food city in Europe.

A lot of restaurants serve good food, but they don’t have very good service.

Television in the ’80s was very limited. There was no Food Network.

There’s a lot of processed food in America and I know that can make some tourists who’re used to fresh food feel sick.

Everybody has to put purees underneath everything now. It’s like people think we need the steak, and then we need some baby food with it.

What I don’t like is breakfast in the morning. I have a double-espresso cappuccino, but no food.

Italian food is all about ingredients and it’s not fussy and it’s not fancy.
