Nell's is excited to launch the 2012 season of Chef Tribute Dinners with and evening in honor of Auguste Escoffier (1846-1935). Escoffier was a French chef, restaurateur and culinary writer who popularized and updated traditional French cooking methods. He is a legendary figure among chefs and gourmands, and was one of the most important leaders in the development of modern French cuisine.
