Inscribed - Alain Ducasse - L'Atelier of Alain Ducasse - French Language Edition

Alain Ducasse, the charismatic, innovative and demanding master chef, invites us to enter the prestigious world of French haute gastronomie.

Brilliantly guided by the distinguished author, Jean-François Revel of the Académie Française, we follow this champion of the highest standards in food and its preparation as he creates new recipes, continues his constant search for the finest ingredients, and discovers new techniques and new domains in which to practice his art.

Hervé Amiard's photographs illustrate all four sections of the book, providing the backdrop to this fascinating journey.

L'Atelier, where we witness the creative process and catch the spontaneous gestures and glances of the master chef and his pupils as they exercise their skills. Here too, we meet Alain Ducasse's five star pupils: Franck Cerutti, Jean-Louis Nomicos, Jean-François Piège, Sylvain Portay and Alessandro Stratta.
