Waterside Inn An Inside Look

I had the great good fortune to do stages in this kitchen many years ago. Michel Roux was kindness itself to this nervous commis (and I was already a head chef in my own right), but the Waterside Inn is a very special place indeed and it was a privilege to see exactly at what level food and service could really achieve. Mark Dodd was Head Chef so it dates it a few years back. Any chef worth anything knows of the Roux brothers and their amazing passion and attention.

Thank you so much for your personal inside knowledge of working in this famous restaurant with Michel Roux. Much appreciated. Kind regards from Copenhagen, Denmark

[@BoshSoldierCarp]

Michel could talk about anything and it would be interesting to listen too

[@davidshaylor2449]

Totally agree

[@traceypotter7669]

I wish I had the fortune to eat food created by this legend. So passionate, so true to everything he did. A huge loss to the culinary world, but one who will never be forgotten.

Have dined there many times and took along one of Michael Roux’s cookery books. He gallantly autographed it for me, and came to our table and shook hands with me, made my day. I even had a tour of the kitchen and got a kiss and hug from Alain. Heaven.

[@valeriewaarkjar5891]

He was such a lovely man. Speaks with such intelligence and eloquence.

[@HTMLguruLady2]

Not just a great chef but an amazing business man!!

My father was friend to Michael and 1997 we were all together in Mallorca one week together. Depending on my French from School we got quickly friends and I remember a dinner we had together. To find the right tomatoes we spend 4 hours on different markets..Micheal was smelling them and he told me. Martin, not good enough and we drove to next and finally find the ones he liked. This is what a Grand Chef do even if he visit my father on Holidays...amazing commitment to do the best cooking results in every situation.

Rest in peace, Michel Roux Sr.

Love the respect Michel shows here "my first chef was not just a chef... it was Pierre Koffman"

[@johnthorn8935]

Sad to say goodbye to such a national treasure!

[@sdj4112]

We had the pleasure back in 1978 to eat at the Waterside Inn not knowing it was so famous. The Roux brothers were very welcoming and the food was fabulous.
