The Gault&Millau adventure began in the 1960s with the editorial staff of the "Paris-Presse". Henri Gault showed his talents as a "great reporter" and Christian Millau was responsible for the "magazine" pages, as deputy chief-editor. In 1961, Henri Gault was entrusted by Pierre Charpy, managing editor, a weekly column entitled "Week-end et promenades". Behind the wheel of his old rattletrap motor-car, he begins to explore the surroundings and outskirts of Paris in order to find tips and best addresses. Responsible for magazine pages, Millau reread every week the strolls of the man who would become his favorite table companion.
