About “A Chef’s Voyage”
“A Chef’s Voyage” follows celebrated American Chef David Kinch and his team's journey from their Los Gatos, CA restaurant, Manresa—that has attained Michelin’s highest rating—to France for a one-of-a-kind "four-hands" collaboration with three legendary French chefs at their iconic Michelin-starred, and esteemed Relais & Chateaux restaurants: Le Taillevent, L’Oustau de Baumanière, and Le Petit Nice. Reminiscent of an old fashioned “Rock Doc,” the camera provides a rare glimpse behind the scenes of their tour as they perform five dinner and four lunch events over the course of just 10 days in the world’s most cinematic venues in Paris, Provence, and Marseille. Together, the culinary super stars and their young and diverse supporting cast ultimately create something much more than food.
