“La Pêcherie… Mauro and I started on the same day, him as chef myself as maître d’…(pretty sure he was 21 and I was 27) we rocked that place… That was probably one of the best restaurants that you guys ever created…”

– John B.

I want to let you know that I love your memoir book. It will serve as a special treasure for me of the Reicherts.

–Maria S.

Thanks Marianne! Writing the book as you did, took real courage and a huge commitment. You brilliantly walked a delicate line.

This is an important book about the dining out history of our city for several decades. Who were the Reicherts? What was the fabulous restaurant Movenpick that introduced us to delectable Swiss and European cuisine? This book will tell you everything… The Reicherts were always here to greet their clientele. They added so much to the fabric of our community. You will love this book.

I speak of our days with Movenpick with high regard and pride, there was never anything quite like it after it was all over. You both were pioneers, entrepreneurs and helped change the food scene in Toronto/North America. My time at Marche helped shape me into the restaurateur I am today.”

I received your book. Amazing story and again the same old story concerning insurance politics. No matter where in the world... insurance companies and lawyers are legal criminals. Keep strong and our regards and good wishes for you Jörg and your twins.

It’s a book that needed to be written and needs to be read.. the book simply had to be written to allow the writer to get through difficult times and for her to grow through these experiences.

You created something astounding and unbelievable for this city’s dining sensibilities… This is a story that had to be told. I am happy for you that you wrote this book, that in itself shows your unique strength of character.

Congratulations on the publication of the book. I know what an active will it is to have gone through the writing, the editing and the publication.

I had the pleasure of reading both your stories on vacation and I am truly humbled by your history and by your love story. In the highs and in the lows, you stood by one another fiercely – No hesitation! Work does not scare you and the focus both of you had during the highs and, the focus you continue to have since Jorg’s unfortunate accident, Marianne, are to be admired….The dedication you wrote went straight to my heart….Thank you for writing your story…. It truly deserves to be read.

Mr. and Mrs. Movenpick Canada. The most interesting couple I have ever met in my life. I wish you love and happiness…!

Congrats on getting a memoir written. It is a huge commitment and yet, I know from so many authors I have spoken to, a deeply satisfying achievement once done.

–Heather R.

What a masterpiece! I read your book. So amazing. I have lent it to my mom to read. Other people want to read it as well. Everyone knows your restaurants but no one knows the real story!

My congratulations and respect to you – for writing such an open, brave, transparent, and authentic depiction of your “story”. You did not hold back… I am sorry for all you have had to face- both personally and professionally, and the strength and courage you have exhibited in each step. I truly admire your world-class resilience throughout all the challenges you have faced.
