Quotes Tagged “Chefs”

Kate Meader
“ It’s more common for people to get fire tattoos. Symbols of passion, transformation, change. But I wanted smoke because it’s what remains. After the fire, after everything is destroyed, you’re left with smoke and ash. You’ve gotta make somethin’ out of it. ”
― Kate Meader, Melting Point
