In this special episode, Chef Alain Passard (***) is sharing with us main topics about French gastronomy and the eating style of Parisian women. Passard became famous thanks to the extraordinarily artistic way he works with raw ingredients, which has led him to create his menus according to the seasons and his "gardens" located in three different climatic regions of France. One of his greatest accomplishments of Alain Passard was the creation restaurant, Arpege, in Paris in 1986. This, established him as a modern chef that earned one star in the Michelin Guide in its first year, and two stars soon thereafter. He earned his Actual three Michelin stars in 1996. Alain Passard greatest breakthrough was when he invented vegetables as the centrepiece of the menu and no longer as an accompaniment to fish or meat. Like in fashion the vegetables as an accessory became, in fact the signature garment. I think you should now hear what Alain Passard has to say about the French gastronomy and the modern cooking art.
