In 1964 - he was 31 years old -, Georges Duboeuf, born into a family of winegrowers that had lived in the Mâconnais since the 17th century, created his company "Les vins Georges Duboeuf." Fifty years later, the founder has imposed his name on the entire world's tables. Today, his name is identified with Beaujolais Nouveau, which he triumphantly presents, each third Thursday in November, as well as crus from the Beaujolais and Mâconnais regions.
A peerless taster as well as a marketing and communication man, Georges Duboeuf has paired his company's image with the most prestigious names in haute cuisine, show business, the press and literature, from Paul Bocuse to Michel Troisgros, Georges Blanc and Guy Savoy, from Patrick Bruel to Lambert Wilson, without forgetting his dear and utterly loyal friend Bernard Pivot.
In this book, written with the complicity of Jean Orizet whose father, Louis Orizet, was Georges Duboeuf's "pen" for 30 years, the man whom Paul Bocuse calls "the king of Beaujolais" recounts his exceptional commercial and human adventure. Georges Duboeuf is one of those men who makes people love France.

In December 1977, a strange word entered our everyday lives: RER.
The idea was revolutionary at the period: inventing a wide-gauge metro that crossed Paris and the Paris region at high speed from east to west and from north to south and directly connected it to many districts in Paris. The RER incarnated French modernity in the same way as the CNIT or later the TGV. It gave the Île-de-France its current physiognomy and is reinventing itself daily to face up to its tremendous success. This book presents the challenges of this history, political as well as sociological and cultural. Its goal is to shed light on the almost «intimate» relationship of passengers to the RER which so closely touches our lifestyles, our daily experiences, even our language.
At the approach of Grand Paris, whose backbone the RER will be, this book draws a passionate portrait of a region not like any other through narratives, illustrations, plans, photographs and extracts from films and books. In the end, Île-de-France residents or not, we all belong to the RER generation !

«Cooking is living... and living is cooking»... This motto has guided me my whole life, and today more than ever, it is at the very heart of my approach as a woman and a chef. So after 25 years of wonderful gastronomic moments, I wanted to create a new restaurant, find an exceptional location, open to the city, open to life; a neighbourhood address encouraging encounters and sharing, confidences as well as bursts of laughter; a house of taste that combines rigour and simplicity, small plates from here and delights from elsewhere, grandmothers' recipes and haute-couture cocktails; an epicurean and elegant living environment in which everyone very simply feels good.» H. D.
Hélène Darroze invites us in this book to her new restaurant and has us discover over 60 original recipes specially created for Jòia.
Faithful as ever to the southwestern France of her childhood, through already iconic dishes like Uncle Claude's mussels, the famous short ribs of Angus beef, crispy potatoes with Basque sheep's-milk cheese and rosemary, wild mushroom's like at Amaïa's, new carrots roasted with manuka honey, mille-crêpes with matcha tea, madeleines with lemon and olive oil, Hélène Darroze enchants us through a unique alchemy that is her signature; a mixture of marvellous products cooked with a master's hand, sprinkled with love and tenderness. A gastronomy that resembles her: warm and generous.
