Bernard Loiseau

“Cuisine is when things taste like themselves.”

“For me, cooking is a way of giving happiness to people.”

“The product is the star. I am only there to sublimate it.”

“I am a creator of tastes, a taste-maker. That is my role. It's a bit like a fashion designer or a parfumier.”

“A sauce is the verb of the French kitchen.”

“My kitchen is a kitchen of essences. I extract, I concentrate, I enhance the tastes.”

“If I lose a star, I will kill myself.”
