"The chef uses the mandolin in a manner you shouldn't..." Funny.

I used to watch this in junior high in the 80's. One reason I became a Chef.

@6:07 "The chef uses a mandoline in a way that you shouldn't." gawd that was shudder inducing.

Yo...this Is it! I used to watch this after school..I learned how to cook watching this show. Thanks GC!

Am the only one that sees some resemblance of his menu with that of MPW's at Harveys? The praline pyramid, and now the stuffed trotter...I'm not even going to bother with creativity and authenticity, the food looks good.

Um - no!! All of MPW, Ramsay and Thorton's European cohort trained extensively under the likes of Koffman and Roux brothers like musical chairs.. And, Koffman didn't invent the trotter recipe, just refined it and made it his signature - he doesn't "own" it...

Yeah even the decor is a lot like Harvey's. Eeh... Marco wasn't where he was geographically so fair enough I say...

The difference with Pierres are that he stuffed the trotters with chicken and sweetbreads. Marco with just the sweetbreads so they all made slight distinctions from each other, other than the layout aswell.

@@Marcusx1980 The real difference is Marco was the only chef who took the dish and gave credit to Koffman by putting his name on it, a lot of chefs borrowed from Koffman without the same consideration

How does the skin magically become a trotter?

He boned out the leg and incorporated the meat into the farce then wrapped it back in the skin to reform the trotter. While it was not shown in the video you can see this because he cut through the piece of meat without striking bone.

It's a different trotter.

Lol, what he stuffed at 3:30 was clearly a separate piece of skin and definitely not a trotter.

'...coating with melted butta...'

Slow down, dude. This isn't a race!

This guy is cooked

Ah man.. I LOVED this show growing up. I just wish the stupid commentator was cut out. I want to hear and watch the chef - the real star of the show. No need for a stupid person guiding through the obvious.

Nouvelle Cuisine is such a turn off. But Thornton is pretty great.
