From the Kitchen to Fame: The Story of Chef Marco
De la cuisine à la gloire : l’histoire du chef Marco
Marco grew up in the large Italian city of Milan. As a child, he had no interest in cooking and could not even make simple dishes.
Marco a grandi dans la grande ville italienne de Milan. Enfant, il ne s’intéressait pas du tout à la cuisine et ne savait même pas préparer des plats simples.
His parents joked that he could burn even a kettle of water.
Ses parents plaisantaient en disant qu’il pouvait brûler même une bouilloire d’eau.
After school, he started working as a waiter in a small restaurant to earn money.
Après l’école, il a commencé à travailler comme serveur dans un petit restaurant pour gagner de l’argent.
One day, the chef got sick, and Marco was asked to help in the kitchen.
Un jour, le chef cuisinier est tombé malade et on a demandé à Marco d’aider en cuisine.
At first, he was afraid, but to his surprise, he found that cooking was interesting.
Au début, il avait peur, mais à sa grande surprise, il trouva que cuisiner était intéressant.
He began learning from the chefs, reading books, and trying new recipes at home.
Il commença à apprendre auprès des cuisiniers, à lire des livres et à essayer de nouvelles recettes chez lui.
A few years later, Marco became the head chef in that same restaurant, and later opened his own.
Quelques années plus tard, Marco devint chef cuisinier dans ce même restaurant, puis ouvrit le sien.
Today, his dishes are known all over the country, and he teaches young cooks.
Aujourd’hui, ses plats sont connus dans tout le pays, et il forme de jeunes cuisiniers.
Marco’s story shows that sometimes you can discover a talent by accident if you give yourself the chance to try something new.
L’histoire de Marco montre que parfois, on peut découvrir un talent par hasard si l’on se donne la chance d’essayer quelque chose de nouveau.
