Chef of the Century descends upon Resorts World Sentosa


“Exhilarating” and “bliss” are just a couple of choice words to describe Chef Joël Robuchon’s food. The great Chef Robuchon is the world’s most decorated chef with 26 stars in the 2010 Michelin Guide.

And he’s coming to Resorts World Sentosa!

In early 2011, Chef Robuchon will be bringing his three widely successful concepts to Singapore: Joël Robuchon Restaurant, L‟Atelier de Joël Robuchon, The Pastry Shop and Lounge.

It doesn’t just stop there. On top of great food, patrons can also expect a stellar team of chefs, maître d and stewards, all handpicked from his dining establishments to spearhead the three outlets.

Mr. Robuchon said: “Joël Robuchon Restaurant will be a fine dining restaurant with the quality of service of a three Michelin-star dining establishment as it currently exists in Tokyo, Las Vegas and Paris, while L‟Atelier de Joël Robuchon is a different innovative concept. It features a „convivial‟ atmosphere, where I wanted to stage the chefs in a central kitchen in full view of the guest, without any manager. The guest, seated at the counter, can see his product being transformed, everything is transparent, and he can even follow the cooking of his meat on the teppanyaki or on the spit of the rotisserie.”

If you’re not familiar with who Joël Robuchon is, just check out his list of accomplishments.
