Agree with this to a certain extent. Especially after being tangentially involved in a restaurant up here. Had a chef pull a diva routine because of good word of mouth and reviews. It was decided that he could put his own money at stake and continue to do so or pull the diva routine somewhere else. His replacement is much more down to earth.

Well i understand that what some chefs do, really is artful in terms of the flavors they accomplish. But it seems that this generation of young chefs have forgotten how to be humble. I get it, it took you time to make your "pacific ocean sea scallop brined in seahorse semen for 1 year in a ham and cheese hot pocket, then "sous vide" in a used condom under the seat of a 50 year old taxi driver". I get that takes effort. But i don't need to hear about it. Be a little humble, and people will want to know about it. I always think of this guy when i think of it from that show "breaking borders" on travel channel.
