Original: Carême ( 8 June 1784 & ndash ; 12 January 1833 ) , known as '' The King of Chefs , and the Chef of Kings '' This common sobriquet occurs in every extended article on Carême ; one example is the opening paragraph of Darra Goldstein 1995 p. 691 , noting also that '' his importance for gastronomy is hard to exaggerate '' .
Simplified: Carême also worked for other people , for example the French diplomat and gourmand Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-P érigord , and other members of Parisian high society , including Napoleon .
