The other day at lunch, seated alongside the ex-Minister of Culture, Françoise Nyssen, we cultivated the art of eating well according to chef Luc Desrousseaux: a delicate Scottish salmon gravlax marinated in dill; a massive chuck steak surrounded by a crisp vegetable jardinière (celery, carrots, zucchini and radish); before an excellent strawberry sorbet for dessert. // G.LeP.
