Welcome to the home of Monsieur LaBouche!  He is a man of unflinching values and culinary deftness…also, a man of long-winded absurdity and explanatory daftness.  Join him on a culinary journey, from the heart of France to the belly of America’s prized chain-restaurant steak houses, in an attempt to overcome pretension and connect with the fabled common man and his deplorably untrained, yet majestic palette.  What happens when a supposed genius chef loses faith in the virtues of a gourmet meal?  Apparently, hilarity happens.

Hope you enjoy!

p.s. I’ve just written in the next 4 months worth of comics as unlinked titles.  Every Tuesday and Thursday, I’ll link up the title with a new comic, so keep an eye out for freshly added links to new strips & extra goodies along the way!
