He created the term 'nouvelle cuisine', which means simply lighter cuisine' Marco Pierre White. 'My favourite cookbook: Ma Gastronomie by Fernand Point, who was considered the father of modern French cuisine. From his restaurant 'La Pyramide' in Vienne, he gained three Michelin stars and trained a generation of French master chefs. He created the term 'nouvelle cuisine', which means simply lighter cuisine' Marco Pierre White. 'Fernand Point, a man of my time and also way ahead. Someone I would have loved to have lunch with' Fergus Henderson, St. John Bar and Restaurant 'I believe Fernand Point is one of the last true gourmands of the twentieth century. His ruminations are extraordinary and thought-provoking -he has been an inspiration for legions of chefs. It was the first cookbook that opened my eyes and made me more conscious of the entire dining experience. It made me think of the guest, and the culture surrounding food and restaurants' Thomas Keller, author of 'The French Laundry Cookbook' and 'Bouchon' 'If someone were to take away all my cookbooks except for one, I would keep Fernand Point's 'Ma Gastronomie'. For me, his philosophy instilled what cuisine is all about: generosity and hugeness of heart. Point said that if you are not a generous person you cannot be in this field' Charlie Trotter, author of 'Charlie Trotter's' and 'Charlie Trotter Cooks at Home'.
