Quite simply an event for the privileged lucky few - A kitchen with no less than 7 Michelin Stars with Pierre Koffman as Chef, Eric Chavot as Chef and Bruno Loubet as Chef. Whoever said too many cooks spoil the broth simply did not know how to delegate and work in harmony and rhythm.
I was honoured to be asked to take some photographs and experience the kitchen in full swing - and to me it seemed it had been in production like this for many years and the glitches and egos left quietly at the door. Some may think that Mr Ramsay is the stereotype of how a kitchen should be run with shouting and swearing and staff on the edge of collapse - but this example of respect for food and for people and quiet efficient working all pushing in the same direction is the real pinnacle of cooking - at its very best.
No loud noises - just enough to be heard.
No large egos -just the quiet confidence in oneself.
No swearing except where required and mostly in jest, and the result ?
The best food I have ever tasted (and many other [1] agree) !
