Quote by -Adriano Zumbo

Quote by -Adriano Zumbo
In the end, you have to do what makes you happy - the people who love you and are around you are all that matters.
Quote by -Adriano Zumbo
I've become good at judging whether a girl wants to be around you just because she's after your status or because you're popular.
Quote by -Adriano Zumbo
The great thing about pastry is there are so many avenues - it's very hard to get bored doing this.
Quote by -Adriano Zumbo
The way we subsidize food makes it cheaper to go to McDonald's and get a hamburger than a salad, and that's insane. It's pure government policy.
Quote by -Alice Waters
The biggest thing you can do is understand that every time you're going to the grocery store, you're voting with your dollars. Support your farmers' market. Support local food. Really learn to cook.
Quote by -Alice Waters
A whole set of values comes with fast food: Everything should be fast, cheap and easy; there's always more where that came from; there are no seasons; you shouldn't be paid very much for preparing food. It's uniformity and a lack of connection.
Quote by -Alice Waters
Food culture is like listening to the Beatles - it's international, it's very positive, it's inventive and creative.
Quote by -Alice Waters
Whenever I want to know how to cook something, I can't ask one chef - I have to ask six.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I used to do calligraphy, and I'm afraid that has lapsed, but I've always been interested in book printing.
Quote by -Alice Waters
If I weren't involved with food, I'd be working in architecture. Design is that critical to me.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I wanted people to come to the restaurant and feel at home, so I put it in a house.
Quote by -Alice Waters
My kitchen has a wood-burning oven, a large worktable, and windows all around, including one above the sink. I think whoever is washing the dishes needs to have a lot of beauty around.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I feel that good food should be a right and not a privilege, and it needs to be without pesticides and herbicides. And everybody deserves this food. And that's not elitist.
Quote by -Alice Waters
We make decisions every day about what we're going to eat. And some people want to buy Nike shoes - two pairs, and other people want to eat Bronx grapes and nourish themselves. I pay a little extra, but this is what I want to do.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I have been talking nonstop about the symbolism of an edible landscape at the White House. I think it says everything about stewardship of the land and about the nourishment of a nation.
Quote by -Alice Waters
We all need to know how to cook. I can buy a chicken and have many meals come from it. Is it affordable? Yes. Cheap? No. I want to pay the farmers the right price for food. They deserve it. They are the most important people in the country besides our teachers.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I have a love affair with tomatoes and corn. I remember them from my childhood. I only had them in the summer. They were extraordinary.
Quote by -Alice Waters
Usually, cheap food is not nutritious. You're feeding people, but you're not really feeding people something that is good for them.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I don't want food that comes from animals that are caged up and fed antibiotics. I am really suspicious of that kind of production of meat and poultry.
Quote by -Alice Waters
In countries around the world, people spend more money on food because they know how precious it is.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I can't imagine leaving the restaurant. It's hard for me to separate my life from my work; I'm really thinking about what we're doing every day.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I used to think that I wanted to be a hat maker, but I don't think that would have worked out.
Quote by -Alice Waters
My mother made a lot of things because she thought they'd be healthy for us. There were some very unfortunate experiences with whole wheat bread and bananas. I always tried to get rid of that sandwich and eat one of my friends' lunches.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I can remember the three restaurant experiences of my childhood. All I wanted to do on my birthday was to go to the Automat in New York... but I don't know if you consider that a real restaurant.
Quote by -Alice Waters
My real emphasis is on the farmers who are taking care of the land, the farmers who are really thinking about our nourishment.
Quote by -Alice Waters
We have to understand that we want to pay the farmers the real price for the food that they produce. It won't ever be cheap to buy real food. But it can be affordable. It's really something that we need to understand. It's the kind of work that it takes to grow food. We don't understand that piece of it.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I once had an Early Girl tomato at my friend Jay's house, and I thought that was the best thing I'd ever had. But then I visited friends in Senegal, and I ate sea urchin pulled fresh out of the sea. It tasted like the ocean.
Quote by -Alice Waters
This is the power of gathering: it inspires us, delightfully, to be more hopeful, more joyful, more thoughtful: in a word, more alive.
Quote by -Alice Waters
A lot of equipment can get in the way of the connection with food, with touching and feeling.
Quote by -Alice Waters
The act of eating is very political. You buy from the right people, you support the right network of farmers and suppliers who care about the land and what they put in the food.
Quote by -Alice Waters
If we don't preserve the natural resources, you aren't going to have a sustainable society. This is not something for Chez Panisse and the elite of San Francisco. It's for everyone.
Quote by -Alice Waters
The fact that most kids aren't eating at home with their families any more really means they are eating elsewhere. They are eating out there in fast food nation.
Quote by -Alice Waters
In Berkeley, we built the garden and a kitchen classroom. We've been working on it for 12 years. We've learned a lot from it. If kids grow it and cook it, they eat it.
Quote by -Alice Waters
Create a garden; bring children to farms for field trips. I think it's important that parents and teachers get together to do one or two things they can accomplish well - a teaching garden, connecting with farms nearby, weave food into the curriculum.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I want every child in America to eat a nutritious, delicious, sustainably sourced school lunch for free.
Quote by -Alice Waters
English food writer Elizabeth David, cook and author Richard Olney and the owner of Domaine Tempier Lulu Peyraud have all really inspired the way I think about food.
Quote by -Alice Waters
I just hope Americans come to understand that food isn't something to be manipulated by our teeth and shoved down our gullet, that it's our spiritual and physical nourishment and important to our well-being as a nation.
