Details

For the first time, Alain Ducasse offers us his inspirations, his obsessions and his hopes for gastronomy, a life of tastes and passions, a daily life of chosen challenges.

He recounts his childhood on a farm, his first apprenticeship with a truck driver, the schools and mentors who shaped him, and then the time of emancipation, great achievements, and passing on his knowledge. He has founded schools, created factories, trained hundreds of chefs, and opened numerous restaurants around the world. He constantly reinvents himself, developing new flavors, new techniques, new roots, and new challenges.

This is not a book of memoirs or recipes, but another way of sharing the emotion of a table, a dish, a taste.

“I imagined myself as a cook, an architect, or an adventurer. I’m not far from my childhood dreams: I travel often, I make plans, I imagine dishes and places. I mentor, I taste, I encourage young chefs by passing on what I’ve learned and I’m always learning. I try to convey stories, a vision, and my convictions. Everything is linked by the same desire: to nourish, to teach, to pass on, to seek, to share our earthly nourishment.”
