Let him cook
Have a middle-aged man, with a stubble beard and wearing a white chef's uniform, cooking in a bright, modern kitchen. He is energetically stirring a stainless steel pan that is on a stove, and the pan contains colorful, sauteed vegetables. Pots and kitchen utensils hang from a rack above the stove, and ingredients like fresh herbs, onions and garlic are spread out around him on the countertop. His focused expression and the apron tied around his waist indicate that he is deeply engaged in his craft.
