Description: |
Taking the reader behind the scenes of Heston's hit television shows including In Search of Perfection and Big Chef takes on Little Chef, this book shows what drives this remarkable man to keep searching for more revolutionary ways to put more frisson into food. It is a story every bit as attention-grabbing as his famous snail porridge. |
Synopsis: |
Celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal is the man who turned the world of cuisine on its head and became a national hero with an OBE and three Michelin stars. Here, for the first time, is the full inspirational story of this enthusiastic, self-taught genius. Heston is a gastronomic alchemist who sees the kitchen as a laboratory where he loves to experiment for new ways to tantalise the taste-buds of diners at his Fat Duck restuarant. This biography traces his journey from a life-changing childhood holiday in France, through to his brief apprenticeship in Raymond Blanc's restaurant where he stood up to a kitchen bully. It then follows him as - constantly pushing the boundaries of his work - he reached the top of his profession and received an OBE from the Queen. |
