Good luck and Bon Appetit!!   Chef Michel Richard – Biography-Hailed as a pioneer in French/California cuisine, Michel Richard is known for his innovative combinations, witty presentations, and exciting textural elements. A native of Brittany, France, Richard knew he wanted to be a chef when he first glimpsed a restaurant kitchen at the age of 8. At 14 he apprenticed in a restaurant-run patisserie in Champagne, moving three years later to Paris, where he quickly rose to the top position at Gaston Lenotre’s esteemed pastry shop. In 1975, Richard moved to Santa Fe, NM, to run a pastry shop that served simple meals; upon buying the enterprise a year later, he found ownership far more energizing, not to mention lucrative. In 1977, he moved to Los Angeles, opening Michel Richard to instant success. A decade later, Richard opened Citrus, a marriage of French cuisine and California produce, which was soon voted “The Best Restaurant in the United States” by Traveler’s magazine. In 1988, Richard was inducted into the James Beard Foundation’s “Who’s Who” in American Food and Wine. In 1989, Richard opened Citronelle the Santa Barbara Inn Hotel, which offered a Citrus-inspired menu in a more elegant atmosphere overlooking the ocean. With his financial partners from MeriStar Hotels & Resorts, Inc., Richard went on to open Bistro M in San Francisco, and outposts of Citronelle in Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Tokyo. In 1994, Richard opened a fifth Citronelle in the Latham Hotel Georgetown in Washington, DC. In early 1998, Richard moved from Los Angeles to Washington, DC, to cook full time at Michel Richard Citronelle, which, after a $2 million renovation, became his flagship restaurant. Richard has since opened Central Michel Richard (the James Beard Foundation’s “Best New Restaurant” of 2008), in downtown Washington, DC, Central Michel Richard at Caesars Palace Las Vegas, Central Michel Richard at Revel Casino Atlantic City, Citronelle at Carmel Valley Ranch, Citrus at Social Hollywood, in Los Angeles. Richard is the author of Michel Richard’s Home Cooking with a French Accent (William Morrow, 1993) Happy in the Kitchen (Artisan, 2006) and more recently Sweet Magic: Easy Recipe for Delectable Desserts (HarperCollins 2010). In addition, he regularly contributes to Food & Wine, Food Arts, Saveur, Bon Appetit, Wine Spectator, and The Wine Advocate, and is often featured in major regional publications such as the Washingtonian, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and the Los Angeles Times, among others. Among his many philanthropic endeavors, he has organized a gala that brought together 70 of France’s greatest chefs to honor Julia Child and raise money for the American Institute of Wine & Food. ******This particular auction is for one (1) Chef Coat/ Jacket only.
