Klappentext Celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal is the man who turned the world of cuisine on its head and became a national hero with three Michelin stars. This is the inspirational story of his enthusiastic, self-taught genius. Heston is a gastronomic alchemist who sees the kitchen as a laboratory where he loves to experiment in ways to tantalise the taste-buds of diners at the Fat Duck restaurant and his newest restaurant Dinner. This biography traces his journey from a life-changing childhood holiday in France, through to his brief apprenticeship in Raymond Blanc's restaurant where he stood up to a kitchen bully. It then follows his as - constantly pushing the boundaries of his work - he reaches the top of his profession. Zusammenfassung Taking the reader behind the scenes of Heston's hit television shows! this book shows what drives this remarkable man to keep searching for ever more revolutionary ways to put more frisson into food. It is a story every bit as colourful and attention-grabbing as his famous snail porridge and bacon-and-egg ice cream dishes.
