Michel Richard/Citronelle

[@iamcassilis4085]

I've watched this episode 1000 times and it never gets old. favorite food show ever.

I've dined at Citrus on Melrose in Los Angeles, Citronelle in Santa Barbara, and Central in DC. All were marvelous. At Central I chatted for a time with Michel, who happened to be having lunch when I was there. He was enjoying a huge bowl of Bolognese. I wish he were alive and working.

When was this recorded? These plates still hold up to this day. He was way way way ahead of his time.

Mike Colameco is a superb communicator with an all-consuming passion for gastronomy. Permit me to point out that Michel Richard's pivot from patisserie chef to centre-stage of French restaurant cuisine is not unprecedented: both Gordon Ramsay and the late Michel Roux did just that and morphed into full-on Michelin 3*** chefs, able to command the entire gamut of a French kitchen.

Fantastic Plates!

[@RataStuey]

I love love love this episode, it’s funny though because it honestly feels like Chef Michel is trying to wind Mike up a few times lol

[@rightbro]

Love the Chef’s cool attitude, doesn’t act like some pretentious ahole.

[@BitterPizzaChef]

The Picasso of Flavors: Michel Richard

[@terencecass7735]

Roux Brothers in the UK? Pastry chefs. It really is not that rare to move across. Ottolenghi was trained in patisserie.

[@suebowman7258]

I feel bad that Chef Richard passed away!!!

[@michaelbenedict5365]

When was this segment filmed?

[@MikeColamecosRealFoodShow]

[@kostas1517]

[@SecretGerms]

[@SecretGerms]

What makes you think any president would want to see you?

[@oliverjackson6121]

Nice

[@SuperOlds88]

The fried chicken is probably ok and can be presented on a plate in a way that the old French dudes are happy with since they tend to over-work food in my opinion only for eye-appeal. But I bet if Michel was eating his chicken and chicken fried in the traditional manner, bone in, he would like the traditional chicken better. Any meat or fish cooked on the bone is way way better tasting. Not knocking his tremendous ability and success, just an opinion.

[@AB608052]

I bought two of his books.. and these recipes are so odd. And they look so bland. But there it is, the guy was a real competitor.

[@mjreyes725]

no skin? unlike!!!!

[@patrickmbasd8724]

Leave the political comments out please. Love the show otherwise!

[@stevendinsmore-george8941]

1. This is from 04'-05' so he was not speaking about your Dear Lord and Savior, Mr Trump. Rather he was speaking of George W Bush. 2. It was a comment made in jest, to poke fun at the frequency with which politics is mentioned in everyday conversation in DC, not out out of any hate whatsoever, I am sure.
