Gastronomy beyond borders and clichés

Sylvie Berkowicz | 8/9/23

They came to France to study cooking, perfect their technique and rub shoulders with great chefs. Some have returned to their home countries, while others have chosen to stay and open their own restaurants here, in the land of gastronomy. With the avowed ambition of winning the honors of guides and critics. With a cuisine that could be described as fusion, if the word and the cuisine it describes hadn't been so overused and distorted... Because they put meaning into their cooking, using the fundamentals of French cuisine, with something extra: their roots and their heart. It's a vision that turns codes on their head, bringing modernity and openness to French gastronomy. Interview with Indra Carrillo, from the 2-toque restaurant La Condesa.
