Gault&Millau unveils its 109

109, the book

Gault&Millau celebrates the new blood in French gastronomy. 109 portraits of chefs who have renewed the scene in the past year, 109 chef recipes to bring young cuisine into the kitchen.

From Mathilde Aguerre and Mathieu Thomas, who reinvented the Basque inn in Sare(Mimosa), to Boris Chapon, who awakens Alès(Lou Bi), or Carla Kirsch(Alebrije), who brings the Lyonnais out of the bouchons, to Marie Dijon, who shakes up Marseille(Caterine) or Mallory Gabsi(Mallory Gabsi), who succeeds in Paris's compassed 17th arrondissement... they all embody the dynamic that drives us to try new combinations, test new cooking methods and experiment with new flavors. French gastronomy is alive, vibrant and exciting, and these 109 chefs are the proof.

Each of the 109 chefs is the subject of an illustrated portrait; each chef shares an illustrated recipe for a signature dish: pollack breaded with hyssop by Kevin Alsuguren(Maison Pavlov), smoked pear, cauliflower and cockles by Antoine Foezon(Le 21ème Commis), vegetarian pot-au-feu by Tiphaine Mollard and Romain Casas(Deux), chocolate caramel mousse by Vincent Stafrach(Bernie & Vincent)...

Since its creation in 1969,Gault&Millau' s mission has always been to unearth and reveal new talent, and to support chefs in their quest for excellence.Gault&Millau's mission has always been to discover and reveal new talent, and to guide chefs towards ever-greater excellence.
