He recounts his journey from a good cook to a decent manager, learning valuable lessons about leadership, stress, and the importance of knowing when to say enough. Buckle up for a wild ride through the LA culinary scene, filled with late nights, Red Bull-fueled rushes, and the occasional star sighting.
