Premier mois de reprise : il finit cuisinier pour le Tour de France

In this brief conversational excerpt, the speaker recounts receiving a persistent phone call from the Tour de France organizers, who request his participation as the "fil rouge" (central figure) to prepare stuffed mushrooms—called "galipettes"—throughout the event. He explains the whimsical origin of the name, describing how the mushroom caps become so large they tumble over themselves, resembling a somersault, and details possible fillings such as goat cheese and andouillette. Although the famed actor Gérard Depardieu was originally slated to attend, he ultimately could not make it. Nevertheless, the speaker proceeds to cook at the bustling Village des Pâques, noting the large crowd and the fact that he is performing on one of the most watched television shows worldwide.
