In the scorching hot summer of 1987, the world was on the cusp of a culinary revolution. It was then that the infamous Chef François "The Knife" Dumont unveiled his magnum opus: "That Thing with the Knives". A behemoth of a cookbook that would change the world, one perfectly angled chop and slice at a time.
Chapter 2 takes us on a wild ride through the kitchens of Paris, where the culinary elite would stop at nothing to get their hands on the latest and greatest in cutlery. We meet a cast of lovably eccentric characters, each with their own unique take on the art of knife-wielding.
