#185 César Ritz and Auguste Escoffier (The Hotelier and The Chef)

Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Timestamps stay in sync with the live audio

Ritz was not humiliated. He was furious. After all he'd done for the Savoy, this was his thanks? To be cast out. Under a cloud of suspicion and false allegations?

It was outrageous. Everything he'd done had been for the betterment of the Savoy. Of course he'd sign for checks and extended credit sometimes. That was his job as the manager, the host. The personification of the hotel and its generosity.

All those who'd been given credit would certainly be paying their bills. It was insulting to suggest otherwise. And as for his dealings with the backers of the Ritz Hotel syndicate, He had been perfectly aboard from the outset. Richard had always understood that Ritz maintained his independence and would be involved in outside projects.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is 1 credit.
