L'Atelier of Alain Ducasse : The Artistry of a Master Chef and His Proteges

Alain Ducasse is regarded one of the most dynamic modern French chefs. He was the youngest chef ever to earn three stars in the Michelin guide for his restaurant Louis XV in Monte Carlo, and his cuisine has long been considered to be one of the best reflections of the Mediterranean culinary tradition. In August 1996, he took over Joel Robuchon's restaurant in Paris - now called Alain Ducasse - where he again earned three stars.
