French celeb chef Alain Ducasse on his current, non-cooking role in his expanding restaurant empire: "I’m a director. I point the way, but I’m not a manager on a day-to-day basis. [Referring to the changing the model of a successful restaurant in Paris] That’s my job, that’s my job, that’s my job. To change and to decide a new way for one restaurant. To anticipate." [DCist]
