I love all dogs; I really do.

I'm all about tucking in T-shirts.

I have to admit that out of 10 meals, nine I have at home.

I'm someone who's experienced impostor syndrome - as I think a lot of people have with their careers, especially when they pursue what they're passionate about, because they want to be good at it. I've experienced that as a gay man; I've experienced that as a cook, as a gallery director, as a student of psychology.

There is a level of intimacy in sharing the foods that have shaped me.

I'm a big Hemingway and Salinger fan.

How I show love has always been through food. That, for me, has been the foundation of how I express gratitude for anybody around me.

I was raised in Montreal, which is very multicultural, very liberal. Then I moved to New York.

I truly love a classic Caesar salad.

I'm a big, big, big Oasis fan.
