The Art of
French Desserts

Chef Eric Duvin brings over four decades of experience in classical French cuisine. Trained in the grand tradition of French kitchens, he has worked in catering brigades and served private clients around the world, including embassies, aristocratic estates, and diplomatic residences across Europe.
 
Now Chef Eric is the owner and Executive Chef of 
The Walnut Grove Cookery School in France, 
where he teaches students from around the globe, how to cook classic French dishes using local, seasonal ingredients.

Much of his career was spent in private service, where precision, elegance, and discretion were the standard.
Those years instilled in him a meticulous approach to technique, an eye for detail, and a commitment to excellence that defines everything he cooks.

In Le Gourmet French Chef, Eric shares the same authentic methods he relied on throughout his career, giving you not just recipes, but the professional techniques and insights to create French cuisine with confidence in your own kitchen.
