Belong Quote by Monica Galetti
“The world of fine dining can be frightening, if it's not what you grew up in. I think when the doors are just thrown open, and you're given the confidence to step into that world without any barriers at all, and you're made to feel very welcome in it, that you belong, then it's no longer as frightening.”
