"I am not one who was born in the custody of wisdom. I am one who is fond of olden times and intense in quest of the sacred knowing of the ancients." Gustave Courbet

Commis.


Nine out of ten English chefs have their names on their chests. Who do they think they are? They're dreamers. They're jokes. 


Just ask yourself how many chefs in this country have Michelin stars and how many have their names on their jackets. 


We all wear blue aprons in my kitchen because we're all commis. 


We're all still learning.

Marco Pierre White.
