So, in many ways, I think it's my perfect day. 558 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,639 Michael would have a field day with it. My God, Michael would go crazy. 559 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,060 Can we get some grabs here as well? 560 00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:49,300 Yeah, sir. 561 00:34:50,739 --> 00:34:51,739 Amazing. 562 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:53,158 Thank you. 563 00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:54,159 Can I speak to you, sir? 564 00:34:54,420 --> 00:34:55,420 Yeah, of course. 565 00:34:58,359 --> 00:34:59,420 Thank you.

That's beautiful. 572 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:12,520 That's beautiful. 573 00:35:12,660 --> 00:35:13,660 Oh, my God. 574 00:35:13,820 --> 00:35:14,820 Thank you. 575 00:35:17,180 --> 00:35:21,520 So the idea is here you can take it to a little restaurant and they'll cook it 576 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,520 up for you. So they don't have to buy anything. You buy it. You buy it and 577 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:25,520 just cook it for you. 578 00:35:25,620 --> 00:35:26,620 Insane. 579 00:35:34,190 --> 00:35:35,470 And mussels. Oh, my God. 580 00:35:37,190 --> 00:35:38,910 Look at that. That looks incredible. 581 00:35:40,510 --> 00:35:41,510 My God. 582 00:35:41,630 --> 00:35:48,110 That influence of Asia, for me, was closer to how I was brought up with that 583 00:35:48,110 --> 00:35:52,530 cheap fare of home cooking. Nothing pretentious. 584 00:35:52,750 --> 00:35:57,330 Again, caught up in that French cuisine, sometimes gets a little bit 585 00:35:57,330 --> 00:36:00,770 overwhelming. And so I related to the Asian impact early on. 586 00:36:02,630 --> 00:36:07,830 Whether it was a fish paste for curry or whether it was an amazing soup, I could 587 00:36:07,830 --> 00:36:12,350 relate to that. And so that crossover with that European connect with the 588 00:36:12,350 --> 00:36:15,390 influence was the beginning of the journey for Lucky Cat. That was the 589 00:36:15,390 --> 00:36:17,470 inspiration about that. 590 00:36:20,510 --> 00:36:25,170 I need this time. I need to be here. I need to sit opposite this kitchen. 591 00:36:26,410 --> 00:36:28,750 What I love most is no fucking thrill. 592 00:36:30,030 --> 00:36:31,690 It's you and the project. That's it. 593 00:36:35,950 --> 00:36:36,950 Holy shit. 594 00:36:36,970 --> 00:36:37,970 That was so good. 595 00:36:38,130 --> 00:36:40,390 And that thought is not overpowering either, is it? No. 596 00:36:40,770 --> 00:36:42,150 Fuck making a mess, right? 597 00:36:42,770 --> 00:36:44,450 We're like two pigs in shit here. 598 00:36:48,250 --> 00:36:49,990 I've always snuck away. I've always disappeared. 599 00:36:50,230 --> 00:36:53,070 And this, for me, is my holy grail. 600 00:36:55,410 --> 00:37:00,790 Freedom. It's how we started, right? It's how we... I go back to the time in 601 00:37:00,790 --> 00:37:01,930 Paris at 22 and... 602 00:37:02,250 --> 00:37:06,550 there'd be no asparagus arrived for lunch at 5 past 12. And so I'd literally 603 00:37:06,550 --> 00:37:10,610 just run into the street, go to the local market, grab the white asparagus 604 00:37:10,610 --> 00:37:11,609 run back to the restaurant. 605 00:37:11,610 --> 00:37:13,130 Even as the ticket's been called. 606 00:37:13,430 --> 00:37:17,150 And that's how good the project was. And this is exactly the same. 607 00:37:19,830 --> 00:37:22,890 We can send a picture of that to Michael as well. Just say, missing you, bud. 608 00:37:23,510 --> 00:37:24,730 Missing you. Yeah, absolutely. 609 00:37:30,170 --> 00:37:31,170 Right, let's go. 610 00:37:34,370 --> 00:37:41,330 Michael will sleep, eat, drink, breathe shit in that restaurant 24 611 00:37:41,330 --> 00:37:44,850 -7, seven days a week to get it right. That's how committed he is. Right, OK, 612 00:37:44,870 --> 00:37:46,830 keep moving, go straight up the escalator, please. 613 00:37:47,910 --> 00:37:51,650 One at a time, yeah, no -one's jumping.
