Gathering Place
“In an emergency, you need to have a place to gather—a community center. I don’t have a church to go to, but I have my restaurants.”

Food
“In the event of a disaster, chefs get together. I do a lot of charity cooking. It’s a way to give back. And I know how to cook for large numbers of people.”
