Kiran Soans, CEO & Founder of World On A Plate decided to start a podcast series that talks about the real insights of the global food & beverage industry. He will highlight problems that occur behind the scenes and daily life experiences of people in this industry. This bridges the gap between life on social media and reality.
Get ready to brew up some real talk with our fourth episode of the podcast series - Kaapi with Kiran, featuring the Chef of a generation, the legendary Marco Pierre White.
In this episode of our series, meet the legendary chef Marco Pierre White, often hailed as the godfather of modern cooking. Born in Leeds, England, Marco’s early years were shaped by a deep-rooted passion for the culinary arts, ignited while working in his family's fish and chip shop. His journey from these humble beginnings to global fame is nothing short of extraordinary. At just 33, Marco became the youngest chef ever to be awarded three Michelin stars, cementing his place in culinary history.
Known for his perfectionism and his ability to push boundaries in French cuisine, he trained some of the industry's biggest names, including Gordon Ramsay and Heston Blumenthal. However, in a surprising turn of events, Marco famously gave back his Michelin stars in 1999, walking away from the intense pressure of maintaining perfection in the eyes of critics. He stated that he had "reached the top" and no longer needed validation from the Michelin Guide, allowing him to focus on cooking for the sheer love of it. Tune in to discover Marco Pierre White’s remarkable story, his revolutionary decision to return his stars, and how he continues to inspire chefs with his fearless approach to the culinary world!
Stay tuned for more such episodes with pioneers from the industry and around the world.
