      THREAD I realize that a lot of might not know who Joel Robuchon is because he's not really a public chef, but he's a legend. So here's his story, which leads into an anecdote.

      Joel Robuchon grew up in the rigorous French cooking tradition. He worked in kitchens literally as a child. He was an assistant chef by freaking age 15. He became head chef at Hotel Concorde by 29. He was always ahead of the curve on everything.

      Same came to his food. He basically created the movement of essentialism, which was making ingredients taste intensely of themselves, while simultaneously pushing the world into that 80's perfect composition and design sense.

      By 1989 Joel Robuchon was not only considered the best chef in the world, he was awarded "Chef of the Century." He trained new legends like Eric Ripert and Gordon Ramsay. He was God of Restaurants.

      Then in 1995, he quit. Or retired. Or hiatused. Whatever it was, people were mostly confused. He was still young. A lot of chefs go into their "coaching" period then anyway. So what the hell?

      Rumors went around about all sorts of crap, but he was apparently rocked by chef friends dying and the stress of the damn job. So he quit. He says he knew he maybe would come back. But as far as everyone else knew... He just literally fucking disappeared.

      That's a strange way of putting it, but it was because he was always a private person. Insanely shy. Quiet. Not interested in celebrity one iota. Only the food. But he really just went off the map.

      There were all the rumors. Someone saw Robuchon in vietnam! Another rumor that we showed up in Maryland and freaked out the first time he had softshell crab! The rumors were fun.

      Actually a lot of us in France saw him daily on their TV screen during that decade, when he was hosting and producing cooking shows. (On was called "Bon appétit bien sûr" and I think it's beautiful.)
