- Comments: Jimmy Burke, my longtime friend and the first real chef I worked for, taught me one of the golden brown rules of cooking: Sometimes less is more.
- From him I learned which simple flavors presented in a clear uncluttered way are really good.
- He always said, "Whatever you're going to do, whether it's a hamburger or possibly foie gras, use the best stuff and do it right."
- Heading his advice, here we stay simple and feature the classic Italian combination of fresh herbs, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, and balsamic vinegar.
