I think it will work out quite well for you.
As for Keller, you could kind of hang out at the elevator on the floor he’s on… and then give him a few cooking pointers on the way down!!

Enjoy the Big Apple, and in the words of Jacques Pepin, “Happy Cooking!”

I’m never going to get rid of this “Glazed Doughnut” nickname. Thank God my parents didn’t name me “Honey” after my Great Grandfather or I’d be in a different profession all together.

I always thought you would come back to the US. Surprise! you are here and that I think it’s a good thing. Good luck in New York but I wouldn’t grow deep roots there until you have had a chance to experience more of the U.S.
Plenty of wonderful places to put down roots here. Good Luck. God Bless.

I was in a Vietnamese place downtown where Lisa from Top Chef was working, and the customers there treated her like a celebrity. Your fans will stand up for you too.

I’ve been your blog reader. A friend who I visited in Paris forwarded your blog to me since I am really passionate about food and it would be my dream to go to Le Cordeu Bleu. Instead, I’m a really boring person with a corporate job instead. Anyway, I live about 2 hours north of NYC. I would love to meet you, but you prob think that’s creepy.. I’m Chinese, female, love to eat and cook all kinds of different foods. Anyway.. take care in NY!

Although really, my envy of you hasn’t changed – first Paris and now NYC! Cities I both love. Perhaps next time I visit NYC, I can visit your restaurant!

Today is Sept. 11 and I was going to write about it. I live across from Ground Zero and there is a ceremony today. Last night, the dress rehearsal sent chills up my spine while the loan trumpet player practiced “Taps” over and over. But, I thought it would be better to talk about starting over and rebuilding. I just didn’t want anyone to think that I wasn’t cognizant of the date of this post.

I did miss a few chapters because frankly I thought they were wallowing in it and better left unsaid…
I will be going back to Paris in the future. But the hours were killing me along with the euro rate. As I’ve hinted at before in older posts, when you become a cook in France, it’s your life. And EVERYONE else is sacrificed in the process. The hours are twice as long than in the U.S. and even more physical (no prep cooks, no cleaning crews, same team for lunch and dinner).
I came home to SF to visit, but then – wham – I cracked my ribs and put myself out for even longer.
During that time, I had this epiphany: why are you doing this to yourself? What are you trying to prove? And at what expense? So I made the decision to put friends and family first and my health and financial wellfare too.
Restaurant Guy Savoy will always be a second family and I had so many great mentors there that were willing to teach me along the way. Incredible experience all around.
So why New York you ask? Why not work in Las Vegas or my home town San Francisco? Well, because I think NYC has energy and I want some of that in my life right now. I want to live in a city that has a nightlife and likes to dress up every now and then.
And besides Thomas Keller just moved into my apartment building… haven’t seen him yet, but maybe he has a job for me?

Are you going to the starchefs conference?

I love eating in NYC and can’t wait to come for a meal wherever you land – I spent six months working on a project in NYC a couple years ago and ate my way through the city on an expense account, it was amazing!
I’ll be there this weekend, too, and can’t wait to eat at some of my favorite places!
Good luck!
Scott

I thought you were healing form broken ribs and then returning to Paris. Can’t say that NY isn’t a bad place to be, but I missed the turn in the road. I’m sure you’ll land in a great plotline also known as restaurant work. Buona Fortuna!

All the very best of luck to you on this new adventure. Please don’t stop blogging. Couldn’t you use another name or not mention the name of the restaurant?

You mentioned it might be interesting to work in NY, and then BLAM! You’re there! Quite a plot twist…
Best of luck! Hope you find something that suits you (and includes a computerized ordering system)…
