Podcast. Philippe Etchebest, unofficial spokesperson for restaurateurs in distress

We know him thanks to the shows “Cauchemar en cuisine” and “Top Chef”, but in recent months, he has been talked about a lot in another field: politics. Philippe Etchebest called on the government for measures to help restaurant owners hit by the Covid-19 crisis.

Media stunt or genuine fight? To answer this question, the journalist Alexandre Duyck met him to The world. In this episode of the podcast “L’Heure du Monde”, he tells us how the chef from Bordeaux ended up talking to the President of the Republic… Which did not please everyone.

An episode produced by Esther Michon, directed by Amandine Robillard and presented by Morgane Tual.
