Passion. . . . "I lived my whole life in the kitchen. Not only that, but its the PASSION, its the love for cooking and food. Its dictated my entire life - every aspect of it. So in some ways, the thought of not being able to do that anymore radically affects your life." . . Chef Grant Achatz is one of the leaders in molecular gastronomy and progressive cuisines. He combines food with science and art. He is a cancer survivor. His a fighter. I love watching his documentary on #Chefstable It is very inspiring! From getting all the accolades, #1 restaurant in the world and in North America, Best Chef, to almost literally losing his sense of taste, doctors requiring him to consider amputation, then him considering another innovative approach on his treatment, doing chemo and goin back and forth working in the kitchen. Ive felt like if thats me? I would've just spent my time with my family knowing that im not gonna last any longer. But he did it his way. Man, that was unbelievable! Honestly, whenever i thought abt quitting I just always go back and watch him, read things abt him just to regain that fire inside of you. Chefs what do you think? Would you do it differently? . . . #cheflife #chefgrantachatz #alinea #next #50bestrestaurant #Chicago #chefcrushwednesday #chefstable #mindofachef #entrepreneurship #chefsofinstagram #heliumballoon #platelessdesserts #modernist #molecular #progressivecuisine #cancerawareness #fightcancer #marcusandcrassus #aprons #StaySHARP . .
