The top name
in the list of my favourite chefs is not Gordon Ramsay, the most talked
about Chef, or Anthony Bourdain, the traveling American chef with a
great palate (should have visited Bangladesh cutting short his stay in
India for some great biryanis cause I find Bangladeshi biryanis better
than Indian ones), or Curtis Stone, the Australian Chef who is the eye
candy for women around the world and is also really good in his trade
(exceptionally good!!!), but its Chef Marco Pierre White. Chefs like
Ramsay, Curtis Stone, Jun Tanaka worked for and trained under him. Not
often do you find a chef returning his Michelin Stars, but Marco boldly
did that. He thinks he had more knowledge than the Michelin Inspectors,
and it might sound arrogant at first, but when you watch his videos or
read about his work, you will find the justification in the act and in
his words.
Certainly no other chef can make you feel the authentic
taste of ingredients from the screen merely with words like Marco, and I
haven't seen another genius like him. Gordon comes close to him but
Marco Pierre White is Marco Pierre White. His knowledge is top class and
I bet its hard for even critics to judge his work. Over the years, he
polished his skills, and is the best in the world in my opinion. I
haven't tasted his food in his restaurants, but he brought the flavours
to me wonderfully from his shows. He is a real artist with long hair
left to dance clumsily in the air, in a white chef's coat with a broad
kitchen knife in his hand to slice through or pick food to taste.
If
you want to improve your skills as a chef, follow the man, watch his
videos and trust me, you will learn a lot. Like I said, that man is a
genius!
