I saw that video a year or two ago, and it changed my life. You can also use mexican sour cream (more liquid than the usual sour cream) in lieu of creme al fresce.

#6This one hits home with me. I always looked up to Gordon Ramsay, read all of his books and watched every single episode of his TV shows.
I left the world of software for a year and half to chase after a restaurant dream and spent tons and tons of money on legal, design, consulting, architects etc. just to have the economy crash by the end of last summer in the middle of additional capital raising.

#8Interesting.
He seems to make most of his money from TV deals. His massive restaurant empire took in 35 million pounds pre-recession, but profits were only about 1.5 million pounds.

Wow. I'm not sure what I'd call that, but it has too many ingredients to be "scrambled eggs". ;)

Perhaps it's just a narrow definition and the "global restaurant industry" only refers to the type of high-end restaurant companies that operate gourmet restaurants around the world.
