"Sometimes you have to restrain yourself not to cry"
- Dmitry, before "MasterChef Kids" you did not participate in television projects. How has television changed you?
Life has changed. Popularity is growing by leaps and bounds. Working in the kitchen and on television are two different paths. Television is a completely different job that I enjoy very much.
- Do you like popularity?
She doesn't bother me. I don't close myself off from people who want to take a picture, just talk or ask a question. I try to be open.
- Do you like yourself in the frame?
I don't like everything. I look through all the issues and work on myself. I don't always like the way I talk, the way I hold my hands, the way I behave. doing special exercises for facial muscles to speak beautifully and clearly.
- Children are not adults, their tears are more difficult to deal with. How do you do it?
You have to comfort. I am a rather sentimental person, sometimes you have to restrain yourself so as not to cry.
- Watching the participants, do you think many can become chefs?
Not everyone can become a chef, because organizational skills are needed. And working in the kitchen is hell. This is a very difficult path, and you need to understand that you will have to step over your ambitions more than once.
"The way to my heart is through understanding"
They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. And where is the path to the heart of the chef?
This is a social metaphor that has taken root well with us. I don't agree with her. And the way to my heart is through understanding.
- When did you prepare the first dish?
I laid the first table for my family on New Year. It was already at the age of 16-17 years. Basically, the dishes were plain - Olivier, for example. But there were also "Khreshchatyk" zrazy - few people know about them, but I always liked them.
At home, I was not particularly allowed to cook food. There was no such thing that I watched how my grandmother or mother cooks. As a child, I loved to eat delicious food.
- Why did not allow - did not trust?
No, that's not the point. It’s just that there were principles in the family that only the grandmother cooks, only she is responsible for it. Naturally, I helped. Dumplings, for example, were sculpted by the whole family. And when my grandmother baked pies, I was allowed to knead the dough.
Cooked for Pierre Richard and De-Phazz
- There is an opinion that chefs do not cook at home. How are you?
I love what I do. Therefore, it does not matter where I am - on a project, in a restaurant, at home, in nature. Of course, cooking for yourself is less interesting than cooking for someone else. But I cook at home quite often. And it is at home that I like to experiment with tastes.
- Do you cook borscht?
It happens. But I bake borscht. The original Ukrainian technique of cooking borscht is in the oven, in ceramic dishes. I don't have a wood burning stove at home. Therefore, I bake in a ceramic pot in a conventional oven.
- I wonder if you eat at fast food restaurants?
We are all human (laughs). But there is a difference between what and where to eat. The street food has gotten a lot better though. Look at the same kiosks with shawarma. If earlier there was a greasy uncle standing there, now the shawarma sellers are wearing gloves, they do not take food with their hands. It is clear that the products there are of low quality, but they are not badly prepared.
What celebrity have you cooked for?
For the pianist Keiko Matsui, Pierre Richard, the group De-Phazz ("De Phaz")... I was fully responsible for their meals during the tour and stay in Kyiv. Cesaria Evora is generally a separate issue. I admired her creativity. And I had to feed her twice. Once in Kyiv, the second - in Odessa.
"I Have a Lady"
- You are a very well-groomed and stylish person. Do you consider yourself a metrosexual?
Rather yes than no. Based on this issue, a metrosexual is a person who takes care of himself more than it should be. And a normal man is one whose nails are not cut, his hands are cracked, his fingers are hardened ... And if a man does not have all this, then this is already a metrosexual.
I go to salons, I get my hair cut, I shave, I have a beautician. All this is necessary to recover after filming. You need to take care of yourself. It's just self love.
- Do you have a lover?
Yes, I have a lady with whom we spend time together.
- She is not jealous of your fans?
No. She understands the nature of my work.
ABOUT DAUGHTER
- Your daughter Eleanor is 8. Does she cook?
Ella is cooking. I don't think she wants to be a professional cook. Sometimes he works with the dough, sometimes he bakes something with me, sometimes he helps. For her, it's more of a food game.
What is your daughter's hobby?
Learns several languages. Dancing, singing, drawing. She probably enjoys drawing the most.
- Are you a strict dad?
No. I'll tell, explain, try to interest. Such a kind teacher who gives the child the opportunity to make his own decisions.
