Businessman

Oh, the secret of a great club is all in the detail. When I walk into one of my bars, I have to have all my napkins a certain way and all the pourers in the bottles facing a certain way. It drives some people crazy, but I figure if I notice something's off, then other people will notice it, too.

My wife is great at giving input for my projects. She's good at naming places, she has pretty good taste in music, and as a model, of course, she's excellent when it comes to lighting.

I had long, blond, wavy hair.

It's nice to be able to have a conversation with someone and know there's nothing they can gain from me, nothing I'm looking for from them.

I'm usually up until around 1 A.M. or 2 A.M. I don't get much sleep - and I prefer it that way, writing notes and coming up with different ideas for two to three hours between 11 P.M. and 1 A.M. or 2 A.M.

To me, it's important, always in life, to never wonder what would've happened if I only tried something.

Big cubes, small cubes - it's all ice. I'm not that fancy.

There's nothing like driving a Corvette.

I travel light, but always with three key things: Passport, cash and iPod. The latter is perhaps the most key - it keeps me going at the gym or on the plane; I listen to everything from rock to country to blues.

I like to adapt to each city. I like to come up with a concept for each space I do. The vibe in L.A. is a little sexier than New York, so the colors are a little different.
