Portrait
Chef Baptiste Renouard
At 35, Baptiste Renouard has already spent over 15 years in the kitchen. A natural-born food lover shaped by hearty family meals, he developed an interest in cooking and ingredients from a young age, honing his palate early on.
At just 14, he enrolled in the prestigious Ferrandi school and began his apprenticeship alongside multi-starred chef Joël Robuchon at L'Atelier. He advanced rapidly there, spending five years that would define his career path, technique, and creative sensibility.
He went on to learn from the greatest chefs and explore the pinnacle of French gastronomy. His journey included stints in the prestigious kitchens of Lasserre with Jean-Louis Nomicos and Le Meurice with Yannick Alléno; he also worked with Frédéric Simonin and at Le Laurent alongside Alain Pégouret.
