America currently has an unexpected mascot for classic French cuisine. Yes, there's Eric Ripert, Daniel Boulud and many more French-born chefs who've established their legends in America. But it's not these august Frenchies who have led to a Gallic resurgence on our shores in recent years. No, perhaps the greatest champion of traditional butter-laden sauces and rich terrines is Le Coucou's Daniel Rose, a guy from Chicago who fell into cooking almost by accident.

As if confirming his status as a pied piper of French cuisine, Air France has asked the chef to create special dishes for business class passengers to enjoy on flights from the United States to Paris. It's part of Air France's decade-long program that features Michelin-starred chefs who the company deems ambassadors of French gastronomy.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
