Cauchemar en cuisine avec Philippe Etchebest
No overview available.
On the spot, Helmut, an 85-year-old former paratrooper, manages a restaurant with his own methods: he goes behind everyone to criticize the slightest failure, criticizes his chef for not saving enough money, castigates his waitress for being too provocative when she wears a skirt, and interferes in the customers' conversations during service. As a result, the restaurant has a very bad reputation and the room is empty. However, this old man claims a family management of his restaurant and did not hesitate to give his chance to young people of the village to make his store work. Unfortunately, the benevolent grandfather has gradually turned into a terror for the staff. The arrival of Philippe will shake up Helmut's habits, especially since Ludovic, the young and talented chef, is on the verge of implosion. Another encounter that holds many surprises for Philippe Etchebest, our two-starred chef.
He will meet Quentin, a young entrepreneur who has created an original concept of restaurant in the heart of the city: an establishment called "Chez Maman" in which the furniture is for sale in the form of a flea market. Philippe will also meet Jacques, a former legionnaire and chef with a fiery temperament. This 40-year-old Picard is a force of nature who works with well-established values: respect, loyalty, honesty and a code of honor. Between the two men, the torch burns; Quentin regularly interferes in the management of the kitchen, Jacques' preserve. Misunderstandings, outbursts and insults: the two men are close to coming to blows... and as a result, nothing works in the establishment. Philippe Etchebest will have a lot of work to do to bring the two men to their senses and will have to use his imagination to reconcile two people who hate each other. His objective will be, as always, to find the way back to the heart to allow each of them to blossom in their profession.
