Paul Prudhomme

"You don't need a silver fork to eat good food."

"I think the most wonderful thing in the world is another chef. I'm always excited about learning new things about food."

"Creole is New Orleans city food. Communities were created by the people who wanted to stay and not go back to Spain or France."

"When I travel I normally eat club sandwiches or I bring my own food. When you go into a new town, it's very had to find a good place to eat."

"We trust something in a grocery store and assume it's good. We don't learn about the most precious thing in life-the food we put in our body. Educate yourself!"

"We had no electricity, no gas. Food was probably our greatest entertainment - the most fun thing that we could do was food."
