Today’s episode is a little different. There's no guest, instead, I will be presenting the first of a new series of episodes to come where I bring the life story of a chef or person that has influenced our lives through a mutual love of French cuisine. This first story is about a man that could be described as the father of French food. George Auguste Escoffier.    Auguste Escoffier has been described as The King of chefs and the Chef of Kings. His legacy to French cuisine is still enduring today and his cookbooks are indispensable to modern French chefs and cooks. He’s credited amongst other things as raising working in the kitchen from a so-called laborer's job to that of an artist and is the man behind the five French mother sauces. Even today he remains possibly the foremost chef in French cuisine. This is his story   
You can get copies of Escoffier’s books below.
