A great cook who arrived in the kitchen late, starting at the bottom of the ladder (dishwashing) he won the best titles in gastronomic catering, in particular the golden rooster, the three toques of Gault and Millau, etc. . He makes real new cuisine by reinventing the cooking method common in Asia but which remained ignored by many in France:steam.

To my late friend Jacques Manière, renowned cook who left us much too soon .
