Just as you have cinéma d’auteur arthouse movies full of a director’s personality and vision, so too are there restaurants with top chefs whose culinary style is their very own: Alain Ducasse, Guy Savoy, Pierre Gagnaire, the daughters of Michel Guérard among them.
This is also called Grande Cuisine or Cuisine cordon bleu, the top classic French style, featuring elegant, rich, often complex and beautifully prepared dishes that require years of training and savoir faire to produce.
