Description
Michel Roux A Life in the Kitchen by Michel Roux Jr. Growing up in a family that has shaped British food culture is a unique experience. For Michel Roux Jr., it meant being surrounded by fine food and ingredients from a young age, with his mother bringing fresh produce twice weekly from France to their family car. This close-knit environment instilled in him a respect for quality and an appreciation for traditional French cuisine. As he recounts his journey, from leaving school at 16 to start his apprenticeship in Paris, through various culinary roles and eventually taking over the reins of Le Gavroche in 1994, Michel shares stories about what it was like to grow up as part of a family that has made a lasting impact on British cuisine.
