S3 Ep21: Emily Roux - Why She Refused To Take Over At Le Gavroche - The Pressure Of The Roux Family Name & How Cancellations Are Ruining The Industry!


Listen Later

What a joy it is to be joined by the incredibly charming and wonderfully talented Emily Roux at her restaurant Caractère, which is celebrating its 5th anniversary and this year hoping that they may have just charmed the Michelin inspectors enough to win their first star. Emily is joined in the kitchen with her husband Diego Ferrari (Ex Head Chef at Le Gavroche) and they are creating some of the best dishes in London. Today we were lucky enough to sit down with her and properly uncover all her stories from her career so far and find out about the pressures of growing up with the Roux family name. We discuss everything from; the delights of French supermarkets to why she chose not to keep Le Gavroche alive to false claims of nepotism by jealous onlookers to the rudest customers she's ever had to how cancellations are ruining the restaurant industry and much much more....So sit back, relax and enjoy.
