I recycle. I have a house in the south of France and I have a small garden. My name is Dujardin - 'from the garden.' I grow carrots peppers strawberries green beans and things for salads but there are lots of wild boars all around and they steal the food.

The disparity between a restaurant's price and food quality rises in direct proportion to the size of the pepper mill.

Mexican food is far more varied than people think. It changes like dialects. I was brought up in Jalisco by the sea on a basic diet - tomatoes chillis peppers of every size and rice which is a Mexican staple. The Pacific coast has a huge array of seafood.

I cannot go to Montreal without going to Beauty's my favorite place for breakfast where I have the Mish-Mash omelet with hot dogs salami eggs green peppers and onions and the best banana bread in the world. It's legendary!
