The Cuisine of Naturalité and Alain Ducasse
I encourage you to discover my profile on the Alain Ducasse Restaurant. Ducasse himself is here to tell us about his 25-year professional journey.
He presents a cuisine of ‘naturality’ inspired by the trilogy of fish-vegetables-grains. At once healthier, more natural, and more respectful towards the planet, this trilogy delivers a liberal and somewhat instinctive interpretation of the concept of ‘haute cuisine,’ revealing the purest flavors of products from the noblest to the humblest, each exceptional in their own way.
Naturalité, the film
Discover this story told through images in the film Naturalité, directed by Pierre Baussaron and Simon Pénochet of Blast Production. You are in for an incredibly beautiful film, as much in its form as in its content. It’s a true source of inspiration!
