What an amazing man who is talented, humble and intelligent. He overcame so many obstacles to become something he believed in and along the way he worked hard to become the chef and man he is today.

Looking at the situation in HK, it's best that you move your business out of that airport until everything is stabilized, Mr. Puck.
