Xavier Boyer brings with him close to 20 years of experience at a succession of the finest modern French restaurants around the globe.

Starting with a stint as Senior Chef de Partie at the two-Michelin-starred Paris outlet, Chef Boyer went on to serve as Executive Chef in both Taipei and at the two-Michelin-starred L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon in New York. He also had three separate spells at Robuchon’s two-Michelin-starred London outpost, most recently as Executive Chef. Among his many achievements with Robuchon, Chef Boyer was at the helm for the opening of the restaurants in London and Taipei, and won the coveted second Michelin stars for both the London and New York outlets.
