Although he has an international reputation as a Chef, the sources were mainly of German language.
If you are aware of any notable English sources, I would be happy if you could included them.
I took those German sources which I considered notable or relevant from an international point of view
It is difficult to get the right focus with such a multi-talented personality.
I set the focus on his culinary art, and then tried to place authoring/publishing and music equally.
Although he has been doing quite a lot of magazine and book publications, I did not present his complete works, as I thought, the mainly German publications might not be so interesting to an international audience.
His Jazz music on the other side addresses an international audience (and he works with international musicians).
Also the prestigious Music Award Deutscher Schallplattenpreis was reason enough for me to set it on equal balance with the writing.
