Guillaume Long was born in 1977 in Geneva, the land of chocolate and cheese. From an early age, he was passionate about cooking and observed his mother in the kitchen. (Though that did not mean his first attempt at bread was well-received.) Long graduated from the fine arts of Saint-Etienne in visual communication in 2002 and won the Töpffer Prize for his comic The Sardines Are Cooked. Since 2009, this fine gourmet is a happy man married to humor, cooking, and comics. Long runs the gastronomic blog hosted by LeMonde.fr cleverly entitled To Drink and To Eat.
