Albert is credited,
along with his late brother Michel Roux, with starting London’s culinary revolution with the opening of Le Gavroche in 1967.
Now on Mayfair’s Upper Brook Street, the restaurant has seen many high profile chefs pass through it including Marco Pierre White, Gordon Ramsay, Marcus Wareing and Pierre Koffmann.
His son, Michel Roux Jr, says that his father’s sheer love of life and passion for making people happy through his food will be greatly missed.
“He was a mentor for so many people in the hospitality industry, and a real inspiration to budding chefs, including me.”
