Qatar Tourism, in collaboration with Qatar Airways, Qatar Aircraft Catering company (QACC) and Kings of Kitchen, is organising the “World Class Chefs.” The two-year long initiative aims to host high-profile chefs from around the world, with the purpose of exploring investment opportunities by introducing the world’s top culinary talent to the emerging hub of gastronomy in the Middle East. The first guest chef to participate in this initiative is one of France’s most renowned chefs, Julien Roucheteau who will be demonstrating his craft and delectable dishes at exclusive Chef’s Table sessions between 26-30 October at IZU restaurant at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Msheireb Downtown, from 06:00PM to 08:00PM and from 08:30PM to 10:00PM. There are limited seats available and bookings can be made through the hotel’s website.
Chef Julien Roucheteau is known for crafting the menu of La Table du Lancaster, an exquisite restaurant in the heart of Paris which ended up winning a Michelin Star while he was at the helm. He has also exhibited his culinary talent at other top kitchens and restaurants in Paris including Les Magnolias, Le Diapason and Le Cinq. Chef Roucheteau specializes in preparing sophisticated light courses rooted in French cuisine. In addition to winning a Michelin-Star, he has won various coveted culinary accolades including “le challenge culinaire du Président de la République”, and “le prix Zepter”.
