“Suddenly, it has dawned on people that Piège is the most important creative chef of recent years.” Omnivore Foodbook, 2014.

After several years at the helm of Paris’s 5-star hotel restaurants, he opened the luxurious fifteen-room Hôtel Thoumieux in the seventh arrondissement, complete with a bustling traditional Parisian brasserie, a gourmet restaurant that earned two Michelin stars in 2011 and, most recently, a patisserie.

For the past six years, he’s also part of the jury cast on one of France’s most popular culinary competition « Top Chef » . He is one of the most talented and famous chefs of his generation.
A Chef with multiple projects, he opened with his wife, Elodie in December 2014 « Clover » in Saint Germain des près,A restaurant with a personal culinary proposal: the spontaneous cooking.
Early september, Chef JFP ‘s announce that he’s going to move the gastronomic restaurant to an other area : Jean François Piège/ Le Grand restaurant in the 8th. This new restaurant will be in the middle of what we called the « triangle d’or » near La Place de la Concorde and the Elysée Palace. This new project is perhaps the biggest one, where the Chef is 100% independent and where he’s going to do all of his new culinary creations.
