At his renowned restaurant, The Waterside Inn at Bray, he held three Michelin stars for over three decades. His career was hugely successful ever since he opened his first restaurant, the acclaimed Le Gavroche in London, with his brother Albert in 1967. He held countless other culinary honours and he was awarded an OBE in 2002 and the Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur in 2004.
