In the summer of 2018, New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art enlists Yotam Ottolenghi, the London-based Isreali chef and celebrated author of cookbooks Jerusalem and Plenty, to organize a food gala inspired by the Met exhibit "Visitors to Versailles." In preparation for the event, Ottolenghi travels to the Palace of Versailles.

At the landmark French site, the famed chef is possessed by a child-like curiosity, as he finds in Versailles a glimpse into the French Monarchy's decadence.
