Gastronocirque Bocuse!
A tribute to the world’s best chefs.
Temples to food are only found inside chefs. Calm, meditation, purification, respect and concentration are all prerequisites. The head must be clear for an idea to be able to emerge. There must be clarity before one can see nature’s possibilities.
Then come discipline, ambition, persistence and craftsmanship. The profession where art and surgical precision go hand in hand.
Finally, everything is passed on, for the recipient to feel a lift, an experience, a mental embrace. We work in a rare sensual medium where smell, taste and sight are to set all the bells ringing.
All of this, Bocuse is an exponent of and Bocuse d’Or a tribute to. And what a tribute it is! A thundering tribute!
Today, Bocuse d’Or is the world’s most serious and prestigious competition for chefs.
