[1] The book has detailed sections on Fernand Point, La Pyramide (the restaurant), his cuisine, wines, spirit etc.

He has cited Point's work as being very significant to his training in his introduction to Ma Gastronomie.

The World-famous chef Charlie Trotter described Point's Ma Gastronomie as the most important cookbook: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.

I think you’ll notice that chefs, as a whole, say yes to any project, fundraiser, or tasting because they have such a generous spirit.
