Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Périgord chef Hortense Laborie (Catherine Frot) accepts a position as the French president's personal cook, persevering in Elysée Palace thanks to both her incredible culinary talents and her remarkable ability to run an efficient kitchen. As the president sings the praises of Laborie's savory recipes, however, palace politics pose a unique set of unexpected challenges for the unproven chef. Jean d'Ormesson, Hippolyte Girardot, and Arthur Dupont co-star.
