Monsieur Pamplemousse finds himself in deep water when an unfortunate collision with a Mother Superior is caught on camera by the French tabloids. To avoid media attention, he is sent to the Auvergne to report on legendary chef Andre Dulac, currently in line for Le Guide’s top award of a Golden Stock Pot Lid, an opens a can of worms which threatens the very sanctity of France’s premier gastronomic bible. Being on the edge of haute cuisine takes on a whole new meaning, and his attempt to get at the truth by harnessing a state-of-the-art TV camera to his ever-faithful hound Pommes Frites, ensures that outside broadcasting will never be quite the same again.
