One of most successful people I know is someone I went to school with. He is now professional chef and owns many restaurants. He also has his own programme on television. Programme is called“Cook with me”. So what is key to his success? I would say he is very ambitious person and he worksincredibly hard. He also has very engaging personality and people are naturally drawn to him.But I also think he’s been in right place at right time. There is great demand for celebrity chefs thesedays especially in London as people become more interested in how to create stylish and simple meals.I’ve just heard that he’s opened up new restaurant in Seychelles.
