Chef Wittenberg: it's a labor of love.
Yes, Jake Wittenberg loves being the head chef at Ed's. His demanding and uncompromising standards ultimately results in Wittenberg having a demeanor like that of Chef Gordon Ramsey but also being known as the creator of paninis and smiles of satisfaction. On seeing Wittenberg work his magic at Ed's, Phineas Andrews, Sted's food worker, said, "Watching Chef Jake work is better than seeing Joe Scollan on the Big Cats field." Still, on seeing Phineas work his magic at Ed's, Chef Wittenberg said, "Phineas's real magic doesn't occur in Engineering, his major. It occurs behind the counter at Ed's, where he makes culinary dreams come true on a once-weekly basis." Yes chef!
