]]>Incredibly enough, his original passion was outside the kitchen—in music. A once struggling musician, after cooking his way through a few Jamie Oliver books, Prescott realized that food, not music, was his passion. His studies quickly turned to a food obsession, where he started his booming Instagram account, which led to him working alongside chefs and later traveling the world as a chef.
“I have always been one hundred percent,” he stressed in an interview with [EDIT] Magazine, where he talked about his passion. “It goes even beyond passionate,” he explained. “It’s whatever the positive word is for being obsessive. If you are not going to shoot for the best and fully immerse yourself in what you are doing and strive to be your best version of your creative self, you will never be fully satisfied. Even if you are able to make a living, you won’t be creatively satisfied. It is because you are not embracing your desire to strive for excellence and get better at something every day.”
“I fell in love with food and cooking for people,” he recalls. “It was that idea of ‘the collision of food and community at the table.’ A friend said, ‘Have you heard of this new social media app called Instagram? You should try it!’ I think my first post was a selfie, but on my phone, I started documenting the process of cooking and taking photographs of the dishes because I genuinely wanted to remember what I had cooked the day before. There was no decision on my part to say, ‘Hey, I am going to be a food guy.’ It just worked out that the content I posted was what I was passionate about.”
Prescott’s latest cookbook, Eat Delicious, is in stores now.

The plate is the foundation of your dish and it should let you show off each element of your meal. This cannot be achieved with a busy plate with complex patterns as such plates make it hard to concentrate on the main thing on it – your meal.
The meals in fancy restaurants seem so proportional and every single part of the dish seems like it’s in the right place. Well, that’s because great chefs think about the numbers. Try counting your food as plating up in uneven numbers is actually more appealing to the eye.
This is a very basic tip, but sometimes people forget about it. Keep your plate tidy and neat as it will improve the looks of your dish significantly.
