August is the month when I travel worldwide to seek out bakers and chefs. Unfortunately, like me, a lot of them are out traveling on their vacation, as well. Lucky for me, Marseille’s Maison St. Honoré, I found baker Pierre Ragot hard at work. He kindly welcomed me into his kitchen, we shared thoughts and bread. Later, returning to my hotel, I turned on to see him being interviewed by a television news crew. I felt lucky to have gotten there first.
