He began establishing his ever-rising reputation while trekking from Lyon to Chicago to Texas and then settling in San Francisco, where he now heads La Folie, his showcase establishment renowned for its blend of sophistication and fun (think quail foie gras lollipops), along with a growing chain of Left Bank bistros.
