Haute Cuisine, which in French means ‘high cooking’, refers to
the cuisine characterized by meticulous preparation and careful
presentation of food at high-level establishments like gourmet
restaurants and luxury hotels.
Haute Cuisine is set in the
kitchens of the Elysee Palace, where a modest farmer and cook from
Perigord, Hortense Laborie (Catherine Frot), is summoned to take on the
envious role as private chef for President of the Republic, Francois
Mitterand (Jean d’Ormesson). Based on the true story of Daniele
Mazet-Delpeuch,
Haute Cuisine is an enjoyable bio-drama co-written (with Etienne Comar, producer of
Of Gods and Men)
and directed by Christian Vincent and sure to please food connoisseurs
and appreciators of embraced passion and unwavering spirit.
