Does authentic French cuisine always have to be pricey? French chef Christophe from Champagne, France, says no. Christophe met his wife in Switzerland, and came to Taiwan to open up Delices De France. Christophe was influenced by his parents as they ran a restaurant, and was also influenced by his uncle, who owns a Michelin starred restaurant. His passion for French cuisine can be seen through the dishes served. With his commitment to tradition and authenticity, Christophe does not compromise the overly-sweet French desserts to a more Taiwanese or Japanese taste. His character is reflected in the food, using generous ladings of ingredients to finish with a perfect touch that is worth the price. --By Josie Wu, translated by Picker Chen
