CELEBRATE CHEF MICHEL GUÉRARD’S BIRTHDAY
Chef Michel Guérard*** turns 88 today and we should celebrate it. I once ate his famous ‘poulet en soupière aux ecrevisses’, unusually tasty, but after reading the recipe critically it turns out that it is impossible for simply mortals to do.

Shortly before, Ton Fagel, at the time owner of Bistro Klein Paardenburg […]
