5.0 out of 5 stars Marco's Usual Insane Brilliance, March 13, 2001

By	"augiemon" (Lambertville, NJ United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Canteen Cuisine (Paperback)

Marco has come a long way since White Heat. He's grown, both as a person and a chef, but most importantly, as an artist. His vision is clearer, his sauces are more refined, his techniques more deliberate and defined. He continues to push the limits of modern cuisine, and has proven himself to be a master-hence his appiontment to the Hyde Park Hotel, where he earned the coveted 3 Michelin Stars. As a professional chef, I continue to draw inspiration from Marco. He truly is a focused, passionate, and driven artist-with just enough insanity to pull it all off with style. Look at White Heat to see his youthful side, full of rage, drive and determination-then move on to his later works to see his evolution into a mature, poised and disciplined artisan. In a word: inspirational.
