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 .

[@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.

[@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.

[@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. :)

[@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

[@persilbran]

What a delightful father and daughter pair they are.

[@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.

[@roronoazoro5273]

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

[@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.

[@billybear9296]

Such an accomplished chef generously wrapped in a doting dad.

[@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.

[@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.

[@williammonaghan3724]

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

[@kristy77a]

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

[@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.

[@maddierosemusic]

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

[@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...

[@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

[@GladRichGirl]

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 :)

[@J0hnFung]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@rohanmullin2566]

Ive just started cooking with my kids because I have a massive passion for food but clearly I don't have your skills or knowledge but I love it

[@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.

[@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

[@5stringofFernandoSor]

She’s adorable.

[@Ga7atTown]

it shows how much he loves his daughter :)

[@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

[@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 !

[@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

[@sachiitv8344]

I love watching like this father and daughter bonding

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@omargonzalez2641]

This is so human.Thank you You Tube.

[@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.

[@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.

[@johnsanchez2714]

Chef Roux, My team and I enjoyed very much your legacy and the opportunity you gave us to learn and keep the flame of love in our profession. Cordially, Culinary arts academy at Lake Worth Community High. Florida USA

[@junemunnik8308]

What an amazing Father and remarkably talented daughter combination How lucky they both are I think he is probably the best in the world so her future is secure due to her own talent and genes

[@maddierosemusic]

Why have I watched this 5 times? I love the Father/ daughter interaction and she has her own way - "Mascarpone?" She nods no. I love it.

[@thihal123]

I know! Isn't the difference in style between him and Ramsay such a difference? Unbelievable. This is a chef that's enjoyable to watch.

[@Petesy]

Love Michel Roux, such a humble and personable man

[@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.

As a french cook Michel is really to freakin' complicated for me. The daughter does it right. Simple dish. Made to perfection. Michel, I perfectly understand why you are very, very proud of her...

[@talister106]

It is a very nice thing to see a father and daughter both passionate about cooking together.

[@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.

[@TheGlendrum]

Dad is very proud of daughter.

[@razmiihsan8897]

I love his English pronunciation and style.

[@G-man45444]

When he glances up after the first taste, you can tell he's really proud of her dish.

[@jchomedog2887]

It’s a very clever recipe with the bone marrow chopped down and hidden in the risotto. That was a very good looking risotto. I think Monica is telling the truth that it’s better.

[@fcukyouuuuus]

They're such a cute family.

[@SWEMartin]

I want to see father daughter cook-off, Roux vs Ramsay!

[@jpodell007]

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.

[@strange7s545]

but ramsey is a shit chef though

[@simonshusse]

oh, come on..

[@darkspeed62]

True. Michel would own him.

[@simonshusse]

Granted, Ramsey is still no shit chef by far though

[@plooopey]

I would give absolutely anything to work with my father in a kitchen...of this quality. Sadly we do not share the same passion.

[@MatchesMalone1183]

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.

[@ianmiller865]

you must be so happy seeing her cook.

[@nativesun7661]

I love this.

[@marcmoore6730]

Michel is a great ambassador to our trade. He comes from premium stock following his father and uncles footsteps. But as well as a mentor you've got to respect him for his parenting skills. Great video guys

[@IyaOy324]

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

[@Audimann]

Dad: Am I doing ok? Daughter: It is raw! Where is the lamb sauce? Dad: Uhm who is your inspirator again?

[@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!"

[@TheLoneComic]

Yes her own talent shows it's footprint. Not easy following in big footsteps, and she pulls it off. The LC

[@alexharamoto1270]

I like this video but I see one thing that is actually incorrect. I notice that she adds the wine before the rice. She mentions that her bf is Italian and that his mother makes the risotto this way. However in terms of technique this is incorrect. The proper way of making a risotto in Italian is the following; saffrito, riso, vino, brudo, condimentio. In English it translates to aromatics, rice, wine, broth (stock), and finally condiments. There is process that you must do to cook the risotto properly and that pearl/toast the rice. It coats the rice in the fat and begins to cook and open up the grain allowing it to accept the stock better. The wine that you add after pearling the rice is the beginning of cooking the rice process then you add your stock in portions and the rest she has perfect. Just something I noticed and found slightly funny because she gives credit to her Italian boyfriend and his mother for cooking risotto "incorrectly" when risotto is an Italian dish.

[@TheSurviver2]

Was that rice raw or already cooked before it was added? Bit confused. Looks pre cooked.

It's Risoto rice, you add it raw, keep adding more stock as you stir and it cooks with the dish.

[@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 :)

[@KaninManeepairoj]

thats awesome!
