Philippe Etchebest is already back on September 5 at 6:40 p.m. on M6 for an 8th season of Objectif Top Chef. And this year, again, he will be true to himself. According to comments reported by Gala.fr, the grumpy chef assures: “I do not renew myself. What do you want me to change? I will not change now! I will continue to do what I do, as I know how to do. Like it, like it, don’t like it, it doesn’t matter“.
“I didn’t do this mustache to talk about me or anything”.
But there is a small detail that will change for these new episodes… “The novelty is obviously the little mustache“ jokes Philippe Etchebest. A minor change for major consequences, noted the star of the paf.
And to explain:It’s funny to see the proportions it can take. I didn’t do that mustache to get people talking about me or anything.” In truth, he says, the idea comes from the one who shares his life, Dominique. He rocks : “It’s just thatwe discussed it with my wife, she said to me: ‘well, it would be nice if you got your mustache done.’ I said to him: ‘yes if you want.’ I talked about it again with my barber and she said to me: ‘I’ve wanted to propose to you for a long time, let me give you a mustache!’“

An aesthetic choice that has no other goal than to satisfy him! True to form, the legendary outspoken man states: “I do it just for me, not for others“. And this coquetry will not divert him from his primary mission, which is to help amateur cooks progress to enable them to join the pro competition, Top Chef.
His Goal for Top Chef
Each year, Philippe Etchebest is very proud of the candidate he takes to Ligue 1. Last year, Pascal Barandoni, who won season 7, then took part in the thirteenth season of Top Chef, in which he achieved a fine course, and was eliminated at the gates of the semi-final.
About the progress of his apprentices, Philippe Etchebest admits: “Even if, deep inside me, I tell myself that it’s going to be hard, I still believe in it. I’m still determined, I still have this glimmer of hope that tells me: ‘we’re going to get there, we’re going go to the end’“.
