“I cook because I love to see people smile. Every time I cook for someone and I see them cry, make them smile , or even do a dance it gives me a sense of satisfaction. I also cook because, I love to be creative with food. For me, It’s like painting the perfect picture. When I’m cooking all of my emotions go into what I'm preparing, you can taste my attitude in my food” - Chef Ronnie Mills
