Just because something's been good in the past doesn't mean it will continue to be good.
Quote by -David Chang
I think being Shaquille O'Neal would be the most amazing thing. There's nothing I would have done differently in his life. Everything he's done I think is pretty spot on, even, like, the bad rap videos, the shoes, the movies, everything.
Quote by -David Chang
If you ask what people say what American cuisine is, they cannot really do it. I don't know what it is.
Quote by -David Chang
When I was in Japan, everyone wanted to work for Pierre Gagnaire, and they wouldn't miss a beat.
Quote by -David Chang
Everyone tries to compare cooks to rock stars. I see more comparisons to the fashion world.
Quote by -David Chang
One of the benefits to ordering food in New York is that you can get food 24/7.
Quote by -David Chang
I love chicken. I love chicken products: fried chicken, roasted chicken, chicken nuggets - whatever. And going to Japan, I would see that these chicken were smoked and then grilled and then have this amazing crispy skin.
Quote by -David Chang
New York gives us a wide colour palette to cook from. We have cuisines from around the world, and that lets us pick and choose.
Quote by -David Chang
I look forward to the spring vegetables because the season is so short. Mushrooms, edible foraged herbs, wild leeks, early season asparagus.
Quote by -David Chang
I think the basic thing that home cooks can learn how to do is just season properly... If the home cook realized how little salt they use compared to what's needed, it would make their food taste better.
Quote by -David Chang
I was quite cocky, but having been hailed as this great young golfer, I couldn't even make the high school golf team once I got there. I had a big dose of humble pie then, and ever since, I've always known that there is always someone out there better than you, more talented. Always.
Quote by -David Chang
If people ask me, 'What do you think could improve in Toronto dining,' I'd say there's nothing to improve on.
Quote by -David Chang
I wanted to disprove the notion that you couldn't open a great restaurant in a casino.
Quote by -David Chang
I'm not trying to bring New York to Toronto. I want to understand Toronto better.
Quote by -David Chang
I love to eat sushi, and, you know, those flavors and wasabi and really eating spoonfuls of it... I would just mix it and put it on everything, literally.
Quote by -David Chang
People don't think that bread is part of Asian culture or Asian food culture, but it's quite prevalent in Northern China, and you see it throughout Japan and as you go to Taiwan.
Quote by -David Chang
I think that the Japanese - and I do love Japanese cuisine and adore Japanese food culture - I think that they're going to plow through the entire world's fishing. They're going to eat everything anyways.
Quote by -David Chang
Cooking and gardening involve so many disciplines: math, chemistry, reading, history.
Quote by -David Chang
America is a country of abundance, but our food culture is sad - based on huge portions and fast food. Let's stop with the excuses and start creating something better.
Quote by -David Chang
To eat well, I always disagree with critics who say that all restaurants should be fine dining. You can get a Michelin star if you serve the best hamburger in the world.
Quote by -David Chang
Open your refrigerator, your freezer, your kitchen cupboards, and look at the labels on your food. You'll find 'natural flavor' or 'artificial flavor' in just about every list of ingredients. The similarities between these two broad categories are far more significant than the differences.
Quote by -David Chang
Food, to me, is always about cooking and eating with those you love and care for.
Quote by -David Chang
I find that there are a lot of similarities between French and Japanese food. I think they're two countries that have really systemized their cuisine and codified it.
Quote by -David Chang
Chef Thomas Keller was an inspiration to me and many, many young cooks like me. He told us that the role of the new, modern chef is different.
Quote by -David Chang
Fear is a driving force for most of the things that I do. I don't know if that's healthy.
Quote by -David Chang
As a child, I didn't see my dad that much because he was always working at the restaurant. He became pretty jaded after working at the restaurant for so long.
