I think he just likes working in the kitchen. While other chefs do some of the planning, writing etc at their desks, he does it in the kitchen. At least we often see him sit there working, not necessarily always cooking. And IDK about the different tasks everyone has, maybe Chris does more recipe development while the others do more writing etc. :)

There's more than one way to skin a cat. Er. Skin a cake. Uh, make a cake.

He was so cute when he was reveling that they liked his cake.

My father who is 88 was just reminiscing about Blackout cake from Ebinger's! I will have to make this cake for him. As a kid he felt really important when it was his turn to scan the skies over Staten Island with binoculars for German planes. And he remembers going to the pier in NY harbor in 1938 to meet his aunt and her family, who were extremely fortunate to escape from their Jewish village a week after Kristallnacht. I don't think Ebinger's ever released their recipe which was made with chocolate sauce, but this version seems appropriately decadent!

Did you notice that his outfit didn't clash with the cake. 😎🤗🤗😎

Around 3:00 he says there is a way to revive from the sugar. I was legit imagining him doing cult stuff with sugar.
