The Times piece mentioned mice and cockroaches. This guy seemed quite nonchalant about these things. When I go to a sit down restaurant and spend some money for a good meal, I want to know that I'm eating in a clean place free of vermin.

Chefs are, deep down, very delicate flowers. When they are not down in the dumps, they are bossing you around. Actually, when they are down in the dumps they boss you around, too. I've heard chefs yell, threaten, push, accuse, and heck, even seen them accost. Chefs are weird, emotional creatures. I've known some nice chefs, too. But the ones at the top are really touchy. Anyway, he needs to get over it. Move on, dude. Cook something!

OK, I'm commenting on my own comment: It's bad that 40 people are out of work -- that's bad. I think the fact that this entry focused on a whiny French guy just turned me off...

Boo hoo. This poor little pampered chef should visit Robert Williams' victim in the hospital, if he wants a true sob story. whatever...

Sounds like the joint's up with the angels, so to speak. Judging by some of the stuff I read on Eater, it probably won't be missed very much.
