Thomas Keller recently returned to the Palm Beach Yacht Club in West Palm Beach Florida, which is where the Michelin starred chef of Per Se and the French Laundry got his start as a high school dishwasher. Said Keller, who visited the restaurant as part of its year-long 100th anniversary celebration, "I get a little bit emotional...The fundamental act of washing dishes taught me to be a chef."
