BrusselsLife with Lionel Rigolet
Lionel Rigolet is Lionel Rigolet
Lionel Rigolet is Lionel Rigolet. One fine day, he had the excellent idea of meeting, then marrying Laurence Wynants, the daughter of a three-star chef. Since then, it's true, he has no longer been able to leave the kitchen or the world of gastronomy. Nonetheless, he is not his father-in-law. Even if like him, Lionel is able to lambaste his team of cooks with aplomb, his rather marked Brussels accent gives him a local touch key that no-one on the world would reproach him for, even if it can conflict with the great style of Comme Chez Soi. Thank God, Lionel and Laurence have already started to prepare the relief. And between the service for her and the ovens for him, they can find moments for their two children. Thus, every morning, after the fresh produce market, these two future-three-stars are taken to school by their chef of a father. Nobody knows what they have in their lunch box, but in the canteen, it must make people envious. Matthieu Lethé
