How a Legendary Chef Runs One of the World's Most Iconic Restaurants - Mise En Place

I love how there are people from all horizon in their kitchen, french cuisine and NY are a great match for they both value cosmopolitanism. France values human beings as universal beings, which is too often misinterpreted, this concept cannot be accounted for without each idiosyncratic gifts. France won a long time ago already and the more time will go the more we'll win, that's also the reason why French people admire American deep foudations :D

When I was 19, I worked as a hostess at The Mark by Jean Georges one summer. I ended up training in the kitchen for a few days (which the manager + team were very supportive of for a young kid wanting to get into the craft) and it was exactly as featured here. Pristine cleanliness and attention to detail. The absolute best of the best on the staff. I was fortunate to spend a little time in each station and even though I'm not in the biz now, I still remember that experience fondly and how a truly GREAT restaurant operates 10 years later. Also, I remember Jean Georges coming into the restaurant as well - and he was super nice to everyone!

I've worked for him once for a big event. And all everyone can say is that he's a very nice person. He talks to all the chefs and the junior kitchen staff with respect and professionalism. I screwed up an expensive plate of food once and instead of scolding, he guided me and taught me how to improve. He led the team by working hands-on, which i respect a lot because you'll expect a chef of his current status to mostly work by just supervising. During 1 of the lunch break, our lunch got messed up and all the staff has no food. Chef JG then told us to just grab whatever we are plating for the guests and take those as lunch. Respect +100.

@Peter Evans No, he's right. I've done both and the former requires consistency and determination in order to be on par with other professionals in the kitchen. Dinner parties only require a one-pump-chump amount of effort in order to impress people while also taking up an entire day's worth of effort for a single night's worth of enjoyment. People are inclined to give your food praise when they eat at your place for free. You won't find such empathy from people who are shelling out their own cash for promised enjoyment.
