Yes it is his home 😌
You like them but do they like you?? Not for long
Naol
Gem nyc is the best $120 I ever spent in my life !
The documentary ‘Chef Flynn’ is wonderful! I definitely recommend.
Brother, you are an inspiration
many chefs from middle class, does the same thing even beter many times. the algorythm never show me video from them . his video came to my profil after he pay the advertise,
rich parents pay everything, even the advertising . he has the flame but after a smooth path with no risks
get lost from my profil
I’m happy for him
I just wana live my life
Eat the rich
The secret His life is THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF HIS LIFE IS HIS MAMA am so sure if your life is based on the love for your MAMA the world is gonna be better for your ❤️LOVE YOU MOM
So much.. Wow! That's good 😊
That's all I have my words!
I'm going to show this to my Culinary students at a Title 1 high school to prove to them that "limits" are set by you for you. I love seeing young Culinary ambassadors doing what they love, pushing the boundaries, and changing people's lens on what passion is about.
For him being in NYC and at a young age with such great success is such a beautiful thing. Best wishes and goodness to him!!!!
I'm going to be a chef too!
the sound is not good I am quite disappointed
He’s awesome
I hope my kids are like that. Very inspiring
I've watched around 15 videos about this dude and the only thing I know I in his menus or what he cooks is a beetroot !! Which tells me ….career is only driven by the story and not actual food being produced
What is the name of this restaurant
I admire his mature approach although he is still 19 years old. I also start at young age i was just 12 years old when i start helping my grandma on her catering business. People tend to judge young people in kitchen. I am now The Chef in a big hotel and responsible for my works. No more doubt.
I work as an cryptocurrency trader and I would definitely recommend the job for people who are interested and don't want to go to college.
Why do I have a feeling that you can only be a really successful chef if you have a rich family with plenty of connections? I remember when I was 19, I was just as passionate and work driven as him. But I couldn't afford a free labor work because I needed to survive. I wanted to open my own place, but I didn't have a rich family. Not even sure if I could even open one if I'm living off with $14/hour while it's already hard to pay rent.
A lot of you guys would probably say, "oh stop being such a whiner" or "he works hard so he deserves it!" Tbh, I'm thankful for him. For his talents and passion, it's definitely being put into a good place. His family definitely admire him a lot. Plus, I always respect a chef that is full of passion. But in my reality, it's not as grand. Anyways, I'm still hoping to have a place on my own in the future. I'm saving up money for it. I'll update you guys in about 25 years or more.
sukses trus ka..
How do you get a liquor license in a restaurant owned by a 19yo. Ownership has to be in someone else name.
Just like any random joe can not just open a pharmacy. You need a pharmacy license.
Thats nice to see. when i was 19 i was a soldier.
Don't hate his parents, work harder so you to can afford opportunities such as this for your own children
Looks as worse as terrible it may taste for sure that is.
Serial killer? Discuss…
19 yo , looks like 40 yo
how did you do it can you share with me , thank you
the sound is not good I am quite disappointed
keep up with the great work, im 19 and i can only make cereal for breakfast
you can never eat this and be filled while also enjoying the food.. these resturants are just selling a style not that is wrong.. but i dislike
You should being those grub hub apps into your dining room and just have the wait staff bring it! Pay right on the app to confirm the order.
I'm glad he discovered his passion and talent in life and had the support system to develop and pursue it as a career. Much success to that young man.
Good for this guy
i wonder what it feels like to know since 10yo what you are doing with your life. f you are amazing
Blah blah blah…look who loves himself
If your parents are rich, that is a blessing not a curse, so better to use that opportunity and build something for yourself with their help there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Will not be going
Im a chef and i like the fact that he went and put some time in some amazing places but because his parents are rich he never had to struggle and have ups and down in the kitchen and thats part of the whole thing.
Ya I was hoping they would get into where the the he'll he got the money forvsll this but eh privilege is as privilege does
18 hours a day 6 days a week? No wonder most chefs are complete a******s
