Foodies and chefs with a penchant for French cuisine have no doubt heard of Auguste Escoffier, a legend in the culinary world. Considered the father of modern French cuisine, he’s been nicknamed “The Chef of Kings and the King of Chefs,” a title that most deem accurate due to his contributions to gastronomy. Today his cookbook Le Guide Culinaire, first published in 1903, is still used today as one of the foremost authorities on French basics. To celebrate the chef and innovator, the Seven Chef collaborative dinner series will be holding a themed dinner in his honor, serving dishes based on recipes in his book, but with a modern twist.
