Quelle horreur! The new `disorder' in French cuisine: Even in France the chefs are cooking green asparagus
1999
Overview
This spring we decided to go to Aix en Provence, specifically timed for the white asparagus season. My son, a reliable gourmand, warned us that the French had gone insane and the great chefs were cooking green asparagus. He explained it was but one manifestation of \"the new disorder\" in French cuisine. White asparagus. [Allan] wept. Old France still existed. He lingered over stalls stuffed with [Marcel Cadieux]'s totem poles, huge white ones, their tips stained purple, the best kind. Asperges de Cavaillon. The night of our arrival we went to a restaurant that had just received its second Michelin star. Its speciality was asparagus. We ordered, the waiters lifted two silver domes, to reveal -- green asparagus. For a moment I thought Allan was going to strike his waiter. My French is better than his.
