The chef revealed, 'I could never memorize a script. I never read from one. On the day my show was set to start, they handed me a paper with an opening monologue. I still remember it. They also gave me an outfit that looked like a raincoat ' I didn't realize TV had such specific wardrobe requirements. We were shooting at Juhu Beach. It took me nearly a month to memorize that monologue. Back when we started doing TV, there wasn't really 'TV' the way we know it now. After shooting, I said, 'We've done it your way ' now let me try it my way.'
