Anyway, I was just reading through an interview he did with the Times and laughed at some of his comments:
On Salumi: "That is a holy place for me. I love that place. I've jokingly said, but I'm half serious it should be a UNESCO site. It should be a landmark."
On Seattle's food scene: "The same engine that seems to attract so many serial killers to the Pacific Northwest has attracted an extraordinarily high number of talented cooks, like these little producers. Rogue bakers. Cheesemakers. It's one of the most exciting, if not the most exciting areas of the country to eat."
On treadmills: "Hell."
On raw food: "Angry rabbits. Flatulence."
On cupcakes: "Enough."
On lunch with Felicia "Snoop" Pearson from HBO's "The Wire": "I'm such a slavish fan of that show. ... She rolled up in an Escalade with some friends. She was lovely to us. She was really, really, really nice and funny and we had a great meal at her favorite place, walked around her old [Baltimore] neighborhood, which of course is the neighborhood from 'The Wire.'"
