  1. Fantastic chef, but Raymond Blanc is my idol – 38 consecutive years of 2 Michelin stars at Le Manoir Aux Quat Saisons

  2. 'It's rich indulgent yet light and airy' chefs really are good at contradictory dribble

  3. He is just a genuinely nice bloke! I can imagine working for him at la Gavroche is tough but I bet he looks after his people

  4. I could easily see why the Queen Mother would ask for a bit of good country mustard as an accent.

  5. Always paid his Staff Less than Minimum Wage and Creamed All Their Tips = Complete chien .

  6. I have learnt so much as a chef from the Roux family. Thank you for you hard work and passing on the knowledge. I will do my best to do my bit for the love of food and great service 😉

  7. Big congrats to @Michel Roux Jr. A friend of mine «Jeremiah Tower» in the US, made this same cheese soufflé a few weeks ago in SF foreign cinema, as a guest chef. This / your dish looks decadently good, yummy!! PS: I did part of my military service at "Le Palais de l'Elysée" in the 80’s with Michel Roux Jr. He already seemed like a very talented guy!! Just in case: Cheers to you Michel, be well!! 🥸 ✌ 🍾 🥂Alain R.

  8. As of January 2024, Le Gavroche has closed it doors permanently after 56 years. His daughter Emily will not be taking over the restaurant. She runs her own restaurant named Caractere, together with her husband Diego. Le Gavroche was the first restaurant in Great Britain that obtained 3 Michelin stars. Michel Roux Jr, who is 64 years of age, explains: ''I must make time for a better work/life balance, so I can spend more time with my family and on my other business ventures.''

  9. Raise your hand if you'd like to have a Michelin three star restaurant handed to you. "Just don't mess it up." "I'm tired, I'm closing it." What a cop-out.

  10. I loved this soufflé dish.
    However it was adjusted a few years ago. The original was called Suissesse because the cheese used was Swiss.
    Then, they stopped using the Swiss cheese, and substituted an English cheddar.
    The dish was never the same, as it was the Swiss cheese that gave this dish its fab flavour.
    Cheddar just doesn't measure up.They should have changed the name of the dish to reflect this important change.

  11. I was 13, eating a bowl of cereal and thought "what the fuck am I eating a baby food for?" I've not eaten diary since (50 plus years), watching this was interesting but made me feel more than a little sick.

  12. 1) I'm heartbroken that Le Gavroche has closed its doors after being a pillar of modern Gastronomy.
    2) That souffle should come with an appointment with your local cardiologist the following morning 😂😂😂 but it's still remains sublime and delicious.
