From the TV show “Un dîner presque parfait” to “Top Chef” and then to opening two restaurants in his hometown of Lyon, Grégory Cuilleron is all about entrepreneurship, creativity, and progress!
At 43, this entrepreneur has turned his difference into a strength. Born without his left forearm, he was not destined to pursue the manual profession he has today. Known for his enthusiasm and optimism, Grégory also gives numerous talks to raise awareness among companies about disability issues.
Today, he encourages people with disabilities to liberate themselves from any obstacles, not to feel hindered by their disability, and to dare to pursue their dreams if they are achievable. Committed to life, he is equally dedicated to his cooking (local, seasonal, healthy).
In this interview, he explains that he has always wanted to be an entrepreneur, to create, and to successfully carry out his projects without feeling held back by his difference. He often repeats that “we are all someone’s disabled person,” convinced that our normality is never quite the same as that of others.
A true self-taught individual, this hyperactive thinker is already looking ahead to new projects, always related to food, but also to disability and, more specifically, inclusion.
