Island Shangri-La, Hong Kong is very proud to have the world-famous three Michelin-starred chef Frédéric Anton headlining the hotel’s Shangri-La Festival of Gastronomy 2016.
Chef Anton from the three Michelin-starred Le Pré Catelan makes his first Hong Kong appearance at Restaurant Petrus. Chef Anton began his culinary career in 1983 and worked alongside many top chefs until he became the head chef at Joël Robuchon in 1996.
Since 1997, he has been chef at the restaurant in Bois de Boulogne, France that occupies a white-washed pavilion dating back to the time of Napoléon III. Chef Anton earned a second Michelin star for the restaurant in two years’ time; later on, he garnered the ultimate honour of three Michelin stars in 2007.
By contrast, Chef Anton’s dishes resemble contemporary masterpieces that are interpretations of classic dishes and reflect the best use of ingredients. He excels at creating sensations and flavours that please the guest’s palate. From the first bite, one can appreciate all the richness and generosity of his cuisine.
The hotel’s award-winning master sommelier, Yohann Jousselin, will pair Chef Anton’s menus with the finest wines from the restaurant’s acclaimed premium cellar of over 12,000 bottles.
