Conversations with Chevaliers: Eric Ripert with Adam Gopnik

Eric Ripert, the French-born chef and co-owner of Le Bernardin, has firmly established himself as one of New York’s—and the world’s—great chefs.

Come hear the person whose family instilled in him a passion for food; as an adult and a world traveler, he has said, “For me, food is about memories, feelings, emotions …”.

In conversation with The New Yorker’s Adam Gopnik, the flavors, and souvenirs, anecdotes and experience they will evoke will surely be a pleasure, regardless of one’s own level on the culinary ladder. Through the years Ripert has earned multiple prestigious awards from the James Beard Foundation and continuously outstanding ratings from the Michelin Guide, The New York Times and many others. In 2007, GQ named Le Bernardin one of “Seven Food Temples of the World;” in the 2012 and 2013 Zagat Guide, Le Bernardin is named the most popular restaurant in the city. Ripert is also the host of RESERVE CHANNEL’s show “On the Table” on YouTube, as well as Chair of City Harvest’s Food Council, which raises funds to increase the quality and quantity of food donations to New York’s neediest.

Both Ripert and Gopnik have been recognized by the French government for their extraordinary contributions in their respective fields, and their furtherance of French-American cultural relations.
