A conversation with internationally recognized chef &
author, Maxime Bilet discussing the future of food and our role as consumers.
Maxime provides notable insight on current food trends, what these trends mean
for us now and how they will lead us into the Future of Food.
Maxime Bilet first earned a bachelor’s degree in English and
American literature and creative writing from Skidmore College. He then came to
ICE and, after graduating, quickly climbed the ranks to become the
executive chef of Jack’s Luxury Oyster Bar — a position he earned a year
after graduation. Next, he moved to London where he worked for famed chef
Heston Blumenthal at The Fat Duck, first as a prep cook then as a lab cook in
the chef’s development kitchen.
In March 2008, he became the lead development chef for
Seattle-based Intellectual Ventures, former Microsoft Chief Technology Officer
Nathan Myrhvold’s Seattle-based company behind the celebrated six-volume "Modernist Cuisine." Bilet was central in creating the book’s
revolutionary techniques, recipes, and photographs. He also co-authored The
Modernist Cooks at Home, a guide for non-professionals. The books have received
numerous awards, including distinctions from the James Beard Foundation and the
International Association of Culinary Professionals.
