Marc Vetri discusses the pros and cons of expanding an empire, and why he decided to take a slower route to opening new spots.

"Wolfgang Puck was basically the only guy who had multiple places. The main goal for most chefs was just to have their own single place. That was the Mac Daddy, all you cared about doing." [-EN-]
