When the food media started to notice me and embrace me, thats when things changed for me. Up until this point, I was just this wacky and weird kid making food disasters in my kitchen! Everyone I cooked with for the book, I wanted to learn something specific from them. -- Adam Roberts on THE FOOD SEEN
