I asked to come and see his kitchen many years ago which Michel gracefully agreed to. It gave me an amazing insight into how stressful and crazy the back of house can be. The food they make.....just incredible and so many talented people, but what a life. It's obvious there is no life outside the kitchen.

Some staff at TV chef Michel Roux Jr's London restaurant were being paid less than the living wage, according to a Guardian investigation. Some workers at Le Gavroche got as little as £5.50 an hour - below the living wage of £7.20 an hour for over-25s. In a statement, the Mayfair restaurant confirmed that it was paying some staff below the national living wage. 🤯🤯😂😂😂

In November 2016, the Guardian reported that whilst Roux's restaurant made over £250,000 in profit in 2015, he was paying some of his chefs less than the minimum wage. A chef showed the Guardian journalist Robert Booth evidence that chefs typically put in over 65 hours of labour per week, only earning about £5.50 per hour. Work days began at 7am ending at 11.30pm, with only one hour break between lunch and dinner times and sometimes as little as fifteen minutes for meal times.

£250,000 in profit is nothing. I can hardly imagine that number to be correct for a place like Gavroche. The profit should be much higher. But let's assume 250k are correct, if you have 50 staff and they each work 200 hours a month an extra £2 per hour would mean that it's £120,000 a year less in profit plus social security and other cost. Very slim margin for investments such as a new kitchen, interior, repairs let alone owners profit.
