Vuonna 2010 aloitin tÀmÀn esiintyminen. Pidin sen johtajana Robyn Bertolucciin ja aiemmin yrityksen presidenttiin Greg Ashlockin kanssa. Haluaisin keskittyÀ elÀmÀÀn ruokaa, eikÀ ole olemassa mahtajana, koska en ole. Olen kukka ja tykkÀÀn kukkua.
But I'm not a trained chef or anything like that. I like the science behind food and all those things, but I'm constantly learning. I'm a thirsty dude. I'm always looking to learn and ask questions, and that was one of the reasons. The second thing is, I'm not a critic. I'll tell you what I like and why I like it. And the reason why I think the second part's important is...
EhkÀ jotain on hirveÀmpÀÀ. Oceani, se on vÀhÀn, se on vain se se, mitÀ se on. No, jos minÀ tykkÀÀn tai en tykkÀÀ siitÀ, minÀ mainitsin sitÀ, koska sinÀ voi sanoa, ettÀ oh, minÀ rakastan sitÀ. Joten en sano, ettÀ tÀmÀ on hyvÀ tai tÀmÀ on pahaa, jos minÀ tunnen, ettÀ tekniikka, valit ja kaikki on vain vÀÀrÀssÀ.
That's not a taste thing. That's just, hey, that's not done right. That's different. It's pretty rare when you come across that. I remember one time and it came through someone that they...
He kysyivÀt minua, he todella heittivÀt minua, he sanoivat, ettÀ kuulemme, me koitamme, haluaisimme tulla sinun showlle. Se paikka, se oli Los Angelesin, oli liian liian iso heidÀn konseptinsa ja he olivat liian ylös heidÀn puolestaan. En tiedÀ sitÀ silloin.
They came on the show. I feel it's my duty to help when I can in the Southland when it comes to food. They came on the show and they brought out the food. I tasted it and during a break I said, this food is below your average home cook. And I looked them in the eye. I didn't embarrass them on the air.
But I said, this won't stand and you guys are in trouble. And they were. I don't think they lasted another week. And I tell you this story because on the flip side, you know, having the moment or having an opportunity to connect with somebody who's doing it right, in my opinion, like Thiebaud,
who was just on. He is the proprietor of the wine station in downtown Los Angeles. You can find out more at thewinestation-dtla.com. That's the flip side. That's me connecting and that's fun for me. So I hope it was fun for you as well to get to know somebody who's creating food in Los Angeles here in the Southland.
ja tekemÀssÀ niitÀ paikallaan ja tuomioon hÀnen omaa kulttuurinsa, joka on suomalainen, suomalainen Francia. Ja minÀ tykkÀsin siitÀ niin paljon, ettÀ olin myöhemmin tullut takaisin, pahoittelen kaverit, koska kun tapaat ihmisiÀ, joilla on samanlaisia paikkoja ja rakkautta ruotsiin, se on vain hienoa. Voin suositella sitÀ paikallaan koko ajan ja tiedÀ, ettÀ ihmiset tykkÀÀvÀt siitÀ.
Onko se aina tapahtunut? Ei. On ihmisiÀ, jotka ovat yhdessÀ kaikessa, mutta kun tiedÀt, ettÀ heillÀ on rakennusalueita, minua kiittÀÀ. Siksi olin myöhemmin. Olimme kuvattamassa ja puhumassa. YritÀn kiittÀÀ sinua niin paljon kuin on mahdollista. Toivottavasti meidÀn tÀytyy palata loppuja.
Ja toivottavasti me saamme ilmiötÀ Eileenille ja tiedÀmme, mitÀ tapahtuu. Mutta se on se, miksi minÀ haluan yhteyttÀ ihmisten kanssa. Se on yksi asia, joka teki minua haluamaan tehdÀ tuon ensimmÀisen ajan. KysyÀ ihmisiÀ ja kuunnella heidÀn tarinoitaan, miten he aloittavat. Ja miten he mennÀÀn. Ja oppimaan siitÀ, mikÀ heidÀt kiinnostaa tai haluaa, ettÀ sinÀ yrittÀisit jotain.
Just wanting you to taste this. Oh my God, you got to taste this. Now, there's seven kids in my family. Six of us are boys. So growing up, the last thing you want to hear from one of your brothers is the phrase, taste this or smell this. Seriously, if you don't have brothers, trust me, don't taste it and don't smell it.
But as you get older and you get better friends in your life, you can trust that when they get that passion and they go, oh my gosh, you've got to taste this. That's a pretty big deal. And the pride in the simplicity of a dish is one of the things I appreciate too. So that crudo...
MinÀ en edes pitÀnyt syödÀ crudoa, koska minulla oli syöpÀÀ. Minun tÀytyy olla huolta, koska minulla ei ole samaa vÀitettÀ kuin sinulla. Mutta olin kuitenkin, ettÀ minulla on toinen osa. Ja se nÀyttÀÀ niin hyvÀltÀ.
Sanoin, ettÀ en tehdÀ tÀtÀ usein, vaan aina. Siksi olin myöhÀinen ja rakastin ihmisiÀ, jotka tekevÀt asioita oikein. Vainia, joita hÀn otti.
If you struggle with alcoholism, it may be different. You don't want something that tastes like alcohol. But if you just choose, you go, you know what? Alcohol is just not a thing that I want in my system. Or maybe you partake in mota. Maybe you partake in the Mary Joanna. And you don't want to add to that by mixing alcohol or whatever it is, whatever your jam is.
Sitten 0 ABV tai 0 alkoholista vinaa, kuten tuolla. Tuolla rauhallisella vinaa. Se oli todella kiva. Minusta se kuulosti hyvÀltÀ. Tuolla ja jalkapÀivÀllÀ?
And you don't have to worry about a buzz or anything like that. Come on now. All right, so that's what that was all about. I always get excited when I get to connect with people. Plus Melissa, who's doing his PR. I've known her forever. So, all right, stick around. You're listening to The Fork Report with Neil Saavedra. On demand from KFI AM640.
It's Neil Saavedra and the Fork Report. This is what we do. We hang out, we talk about food, we celebrate it, the people that make it. And boy, today has been one of those days for sure. And it's just one of the quintessential Southern California days. It's a great summer day, but here's the switch. It's mid-January. But it is.
I think we're having some family come in tomorrow and sit by the pool. No joke. In January. In Southern California. Grilling. By a pool. In January. It almost makes all the other crap worth it. Potholes.
