I am proud of working at the Waterside Inn, I only started in December of this year but felt like I been working here for years. Alain Roux is one of the best mangers I have had working in hospitality, I have never worked in a Michelin restaurant before I am proud to work for the Roux family.

What's it like working in a three star Michelin restaurant? I'm almost more fascinated by the discipline, dedication and hard work in the kitchen than I am eating at it. Long hours and low pay but an education of a lifetime I imagine.

The economics of this level of cooking always blow my mind. 24 highly-trained chefs working tirelessly for around 50 covers and producing top-tier cooking for every single one of them consistently and without fail. Add to that the acquisition of the best ingredients nature can provide and the tools to apply the techniques honed by perfectionist chefs...this is what people can't understand when they see the price tag and put it off as too expensive. And I didn't even mention location and other overheads...it's mind-boggling.

If you take a look at the "who's who" of UK restaurant scene for the last 40+ years and trace their training back... It tends to go back to the Roux or pass through their kitchen scions. Whom Chef Albert (RIP) used to affectionately call 'my babies' (MPW, GR, Koffman, Wareing etc etc...

About 20 yrs ago I was a head chef in a small restaurant nearby serving gourmet food. I met Michael Roux in a booksigning in Maidenhead. I asked if I could come and work free at the Waterside inn. He was delighted and asked me to contact his secetary (?) about the date. As I was head chef with obligues to my work I couldnt do just any day. I gave them date I could work and in return I got this very nice letter kindly saying they give the time Id be allowed to come to their kitchen. He wished me all the best fot the future and wished me well. Would have been very nice to experience that but on the other hand I have a letter signed for me by Michael Roux

Being established long ago and having roots in French culinary cooking and service tradition - all has its consequences, which cannot and will not be changed by critique. Especially when it is coming from other countries, which built their restaurant service on what they have learned from classical French cuisine.

That's too many nationalities. Imagine a restaurant that hires based off of what your passport says, instead of what your resume says. Who is this restaurant trying to please, anyway??? Restaurant to applicants: 'Oh, I see you have tons of culinary experience, but, unfortunately, we already have enough French employees. Sorry!'
