With two Michelin stars already under his belt, the creative, energetic, thoughtful Thierry Marx was also recently named chef of the year by the French restaurant guide Gault Millau.
Balding, with intense, piercing eyes, Marx could be Bruce Willis's twin brother. At 44, he seems to be redefining the cuisine, lifestyle and philosophy of his generation of young French chefs. A black belt in judo, Marx also gathers his staff for regular boxing sessions to help them de-stress.
He is a runner as well as a vegetarian. The Parisian-born Marx lives frugally and simply, spending three months each year in a tiny room in Tokyo, with little more than a futon and books and, as he adds, "ambition and modesty."
