Knowing that Walt said "People can *feel* perfection" makes me feel so vindicated; to the people that asked me whether people would ever notice all the details I put into my work, I always responded that people can feel it and that it adds an invisible veneer to the work, and I have always been met with silent skepticism. To be honest, I was even skeptical of my own words. It feels that way to me -- but I was always skeptical as to whether it was truly universal or whether it's because I am a designer or because I designed and engineered my work.
Wow! I also don’t watch tv or movies, so idk if I’ll pick up the Bear, but I have wanted to read Unreasonable Hospitality and this essay is motivating me to pick it up!
I think you'll like Unreasonable Hospitality! There are some great stories and also lessons for running a team, focusing on what matters, and the highs and lows of running a business.
Kind of the same on TV, I do watch live sports, but other than that there isn’t much that keeps my attention. Finished The Bear in a weekend.... hahaha.
On EMP, let’s just say we weren’t blown away. A little bit of a different diner now, so not sure if I would have a different opinion.
I remember you mentioning that you didn't find it amazing. In the last few years, Will ended up leaving the company and they transitioned to a vegan menu. Also, once you hit #1 in top restaurants in the world, you're no longer eligible to be on the list, so it's difficult to know where they'd land today.
