Roux Legacy: Father & Daughter at work in the kitchen of Le Gavroche

[@zenchoctaw]

I like how he was lovingly quizzing her as a spectator, praising her as a father and professionally guiding her as the world class chef that he is all at the same time! I want to eat at Le Gavroche now.

[@khaelamensha3624]

And your forget just pulling her legs about her italian boy friend :)

[@tendfday]

So much different from the Ego Ramsay and his daughter. No technical culinary skills, no class, rudeness for views .

[@vjary8142]

A very proud father watching his daughter cook (no pressure!!). Then Monica walks into the kitchen, tastes the risotto and calmly says, it's better than your dad's. Fab!!!!!

[@ChrirTFM]

Watching this, eating my ramen noodles, quietly weeping

[@writereducator]

Ramen rules.

[@wendymiller3364]

I feel your pain

[@franzitaduz]

Weep not. Try the dish and use chopped truffles or a good truffle oil. Even on a budget, it's possible to upgrade from Ramen.

[@raymondcote2414]

Same here

[@JohnnyinCLE]

But Ramen can also beade gourmet. ;-) As for Risotto? Marrow is easy to procure and work with. Rice is able to be used with pretty much any; from Long Grain, to Jasmine, to Bismati. Some are better to use than others, but you'd be surprised what you may create. I recommend looking at Marco Pierre White's take on Risotto, which is simple, yet very effective. :)

[@biggdaddy202003]

This was great to see chef. Loved the proud dad moment of the daughter doing something better than dad could lol. Also Monica at the end was the icing on the cake.

[@henriquefontan1954]

Monsieur Roux Jr, quelle joie de vous voir en cuisine avec votre fille, cela sent le bonheur et la fierté. J'ai 65 ans et votre père, vous et maintenant votre fille faites honneur à la profession. Merci pour tout ce que vous nous donnez.

[@onkelmarvin8360]

It`s very sweet to see, how Michel is both a father, a teacher, and the great Michel Roux Jr, all at the same time.

[@persilbran]

What a delightful father and daughter pair they are.

[@fozzy1004]

I have known many children with very skilled and talented parents but this girl obviously paid attention and created her own form of the art, a wonderful thing to see.

[@davidwussah4312]

Dad is lovely and funny. You know you've hit jackpot when your dad praises your boyfriend. I wish them well.

[@bensonfang1868]

Bf must be over the moon to be praised by Michelin starred father in law

[@sadochrist8534]

She seems embarrassed but it's so cute and she seems very skilled at making that dish.

[@PolarBear-rc4ks]

@Ron Happold and you must be better than her, right?

[@Anudorini-Talah]

she seems kiddy and spoily being shy and slightly arrogant.. she doesnt cook it good

[@Buckblacket]

@@Anudorini-Talah it's nothing like that at all. Her father is a master chef and she feels sheepish about "teaching" him to cook this dish.

[@JD-et6yo]

@@PolarBear-rc4ks Always a garbage response in any kind of argument or discussion, "i'd like to see you try/do better". Classic.

what a man this michel is. put his cooking career aside. ive never seen someone be so honest with life in general. he says everything he thinks in a polite humble way. asks even his daughter how a risotto should be done. amazing. respect to you chef roux !

[@GH-oi2jf]

They are making a video, remember.

[@GladRichGirl]

@@GH-oi2jf not wrong :)

[@Nabiki73]

"I'm not going to say a word." - you don't need to, chef- the fact that you're continuing to eat her risotto says it all.

[@pricejoss]

Lovely to watch a father and daughter enjoy a shared passion. I hope I’m this good friends with my son when he’s her age.

[@roronoazoro5273]

Omg why does Emily still have the most beautiful smile ive ever seen and such a good daughter

[@billybear9296]

Such an accomplished chef generously wrapped in a doting dad.

[@nicholasgerrish6022]

Excellent, and once again I marvel at seeing how two French brothers have created a dynasty in England, which continues today, up to the present generation. Belle cuisine.

[@ianhubbard4954]

God bless the roux family. They are classic in England and have made many top chefs. I wish nothing but the best for them all

[@salvation551]

aww his daughter is such a lovely pure soul.....blushin n no one can tell dat shes michell rouxs daughter...i mean being in the shadow of such a powerful name...she has held her own identity...n michell ws beaming with pride when she was cookin....amazing...

[@stephensmith4480]

Absolutely brilliant. Michel is the number one man and Monica is great chef in her own right, if you see her at work its plain to see who she learnt her skills from.

[@yoricknicholls]

That's the sweetest cooking video I've seen. What a great mentor he makes... I'd love to spend a day learning from him.

[@williammonaghan3724]

The joy of this is seeing the proudness of her father... chip of the old block....

[@Hofstetter4149]

It is always good for a father to know when to shut up!!1....That was a wonderful father daughter cooking experience. Thank you to you all

[@oleringnes4922]

Love to to see how proud Michel Roux is. They are so sweet together, and she is an amazing cook, probably thanks by her gentle and nice father.

[@J0hnFung]

Shes so lucky to have a father that cook like that, so jelly :(

[@maddierosemusic]

Class, class class. What a proud Dad and Grandfather!!!!!!!

[@kristy77a]

That was as charming as it was instructive. Thank you.

[@icanhasfarikal6227]

I must have been watching Masterchef too much because I get excited by the star cameo by Monica Galletti at the end

[@enochianmagic]

Same 😂🤣

[@arsensaakyan8896]

The sex is coming .just wait

[@youvaveerasamy6110]

I like the fact that a chef cooks and agrees with his daughter`s advise and letting her cook her way , well done Michel, you`re gorgeous.As a father, as a son, and a a great chef. Thumbs up.

[@theodoremason6344]

I made a burrito from aldi whilst watching this. It had rice in it, I put it in the oven, Done! So basically the same set of skill levels, required to prepare two different and remarkable dishes. Well done Emily.

[@tendfday]

The pride, love in his voice and words for his daughter, their technical culinary knowledge and skills. Class , wonderful. Eat your heart out Ramseys' swearing and bullying.

[@paulsurbitonryan9632]

I think I enjoy this for the chemistry between father and daughter and his unique humility considering the height to which he has risen. He fails to be entrapped by his own ego and invests so much in the next generation. The gentle humour at the end, the way he is outnumbered by the women, speaks volumes in a charming lovely way that is so counter to this bitter, twisted, entitled brat culture generation. Michel was once asked, ‘have you got any recipes for a moody teenager?’ and his response was that when he was a teenager he just got out there and worked.

[@Anonymous-nj2ow]

you can only imagine the memories she had of watching her father and grandfather (Michel Roux) cooking, just total pinnacle of cooking. Imagine their holiday dinners...

[@mikal024]

Her grandfather was actually Albert Roux.

[@katarzynamariamuszynska2811]

Her grandfather is Albert Roux and her grandfather brother is Michel Roux Sr and her father is Michel Albert Roux jr

[@Kitsua]

Utterly adorable. The more I see of the Roux's the more I like them.

[@kitezzz360]

bet their staff that was paid under the minimum wage love them a little less

[@wheatiegirls]

We were lucky enough to be able to spend the evening of October 9th at Le Gavroche where we had the most delectable meal we have ever had! We delighted in watching some of the videos when we got home but we were also delighted to be able to meet Michel in person the night we dined. Truly a once in a lifetime experience - which we hope to be able to do again in this lifetime! Love the "Family" business - Emily is the new star! And yes...her risotto is better than her dad's!

[@stephensmith4480]

+Bonnie Harrison I hate you, lol. Only joking, bet it was amazing.

That was 8 minutes NOT wasted. Very cute and good on Emily! Best Regards and Best Wishes for your future!

[@davidmircea2050]

She is absolutely beautiful ! My God what perfect teeth she has. If I were working in a professional kitchen, I'd probably have a dentist subscription. ....and a diet doctor one :) Keep up the good work !

[@Ga7atTown]

it shows how much he loves his daughter :)

[@roronoazoro5273]

Why is she sooo freakinnn cuteee... especially her smile... id come to the restaraunt just to see her smile and speak...forget the food... Roux is a lucky man... what a lovely daughter... you can tell she listens to her parents... i wish i was born earlier and met her earlier... would have married her

[@ancogaming]

Damn, she is good. Well, hardly a surprise growing up in this family I guess, but still! There is something in her style, how she does things calmly and casually in perfection which shows what a set of skill she has. Wouldn't be surprised if her potential outshines her old man someday.

That would be a perfect cook-off for a competition to benefit a very worthy charity such as one that assists disabled veterans in the UK. Imagine the publicity that would bring for fundraising purposes.

[@JackOrion0670]

Heart warming video. It reminds me of Kenny Shopsin cooking with his daughter in 'I Like Killing Flies' all be it a little more crude but equally as cute.

[@MetteC5]

Heartwarming also to see albeit written the old way ;)

[@russyJ20]

2 things.. First, add the rice before the wine, coat the rice in all that lovely fat then deglaze and start the cooking. Second, season as you go starting with shallots, then rice and so on. perhaps less than usual as she stated the bone marrow is a touch salty. That said, this looks an amazing dish, substituting butter with the marrow is a fantastic idea. looking forward to trying this recipe, and will probably follow her instructions just to be proved wrong :)

[@roronoazoro5273]

Emily is too pretty man ... i could die staring at her smile and hear her speak anything... omg

[@TheGlendrum]

Dad is very proud of daughter.

[@Reizermo]

As Chef's go, he's one of the nice guys. But he instincts could here couldn't help but offer suggestions on what he would have done. And she was looking at him with an expression of....."whose cooking this risotto Dad!"

[@JustAnotherBlader]

This was more than amusing to watch their dynamic lol

I envy them too!My dad was a chef and I became a chef myself...We both share the passion for cooking like my Chinese grandfather...But the sad things is,we're not in good terms and I tried my best to make him proud of me but he never acknowledged my passion for cooking.Now I'm studying to become a nurse but I would definitely pursue to become a restaurant owner someday with the help of my wonderful boyfriend who is a chef too... :D

You would regret it. He paid his cooks below minimum wages, no overtime pay (even though they worked over 60 hours/week and didn't always allow them sufficient amount of breaks. If that's how he treats his cooks, imagine how he treats his dishwashers.

[@GT-kq3fe]

So one can go in a dead-end kitchen, get all the perks and by the law, and learn nothing really. If you worked at La Gavaroche, you've received the methods and knowledge to become a world class chef. Marco did not dream about working for the Roux Brothers for no reason, he couldn't care less for the terms of work..

Presumably the Italian guy that she's currently married to and opened a restaurant with in Notting Hill last year is the same guy. It's definitely worked out for them, but it would likely be very hard for it not to work out if you're a Roux and you're opening a restaurant. Property in Notting Hill though; how much did that set them back.
