Yannick Alléno, Chef (re) trainer, receives the 2024 Chef Mentor Award by the Michelin Guide

‍Passing on to the younger generation

Supporting young talents, transmitting their know-how to them and raising them to the highest level of excellence, this is the mission that Chef Yannick Alléno has set himself.

“I myself was trained by great MOF chefs such as Gabriel Biscay, Jacky Freon, Roland Durand, Martial Enguehard, or even Louis Grondard. To maintain the know-how of French cuisine, it is essential that we in turn transmit and pass the torch to the younger generations. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve in the profession.” Yannick Alléno

At the Lyfe Institute in Lyon, the Chef created the Sauce School, whose courses make it possible to understand the principles and fundamentals of the French sauce tradition and to master new techniques such as extraction or cryo-concentration at the origin of the new generation of sauces, the origin of the new generation of sauces, the cement of Modern Cuisine, dear to Chef Alléno.

Create working conditions favorable to the training of talent

The Pavillon Ledoyen, the most starred independent establishment in the world, is similar to a real training center. Here, 27 different nationalities not only have the opportunity to work in the place's three Michelin-starred restaurants (Pavyllon, one star; L'Abysse, two stars; Alléno Paris, three stars), but also in all of the Group's restaurants, i.e. 16 addresses around the world.

From Monte Carlo to Seoul via Dubai and London, it is a real opportunity for young talents in the dining room, kitchen, pastry or sommelier, who wish to improve their skills under the guidance of Chef Yannick Alléno, through different types of restaurants.

Like Auguste Escoffier before him, Yannick Alléno was part of his time and initiated profound transformations in the organization of kitchens. At the Pavillon Ledoyen, he has thus set up a participatory schedule to promote the balance between professional and personal life of his employees.
