A three-Michelin-starred chef from southern France has requested to be removed from the famous list, the first French chef to ever do so.
“Bras said he wanted to be allowed to cook excellent food away from the frenzy of star ratings and the anxiety over Michelin’s anonymous food judges, who could arrive at his restaurant at any moment.”
Maybe he just achieved everything he wanted to and no longer wanted the stress of maintaining the extremely high standards, or it could be a signal of a shift in the ultra-competitive world of award winning cooking.
