Alexia Duchêne, from 'Top Chef' to New York: 'Americans love the spectacle'

Former 'Top Chef' semi-finalist Alexia Duchêne opened Le Chêne restaurant in New York in May. In a bourgeois setting, the chef showcases French culinary expertise to an enthusiastic New York clientele. Her cuisine, focused on luxury and opulence, stands in contrast to the bistronomy trend popular with her generation.
