Chef 'suicide' after critics' attack

Bernard Loiseau was found dead at his country home, a hunting rifle by his side.

His death came a week after the renowned GaultMillau restaurant guide cut its rating for his Cote d'Or restaurant in Burgundy.

I am bit upset and very sad about this. I met Bernard Loiseau in his restaurant few years ago, as he like to talk to his customers.
I don't know if the medias are not a bit too strong about the GaultMillau story, but it's true that this chef was under an enormous pressure and apparently he didn't have holidays for many years.

I was watching here on TV in Ireland some documentary about Jamie Oliver, the so famous TV cook in England, who decide to open a restaurant. It's actually unbelievable to see how much stress they can take, from the staff, on the financial aspect.
