A Gathering of Truly Inspirational People
(soft music) How beautiful this table is. For me, the sum of it all is at the table with friends and family and some sharing, some good food. This goes a little bit beyond. I really wanna thank you. Thank you all very much. And if I saw anybody face this adversity with tenacity and getting over and going on with life, it is you guys. So thank you very much for sharing that. Continue that strength, continue that eating and drinking as well. (laughs) All right.

We have a chop salad, everybody... Well, I wanna thank everybody for making this a glorious glorious meal. This was much needed. It was an incredible stressful time to have to open up a restaurant during COVID, but we did it together, collectively friends and family. I wanna toast to you Chef because you have had a deep and profound effect on me. I felt so good being at the table. So good, seeing old friends, meeting new friends. People that had enormous adversities in life. I got to know about a lot of people and their difficulties and ultimately how they move on and share it with others. For me to be there in a sense and acknowledge that and thank them for it was a special gift to me. Okay. -
All
Cheers. Salut! (soft charming music)
