Yannick Alleno
Born on 16 December 1968 in Puteaux, Yannick Alléno studied at Santo Dumont High School in Saint-Cloud. He began his career at the Royal Monceau working with Gabriel Biscay before joining the Hotel Sofitel Sèvres and working closely with chefs Roland Durand and Martial Henguehardm. After entering Drouant and studying under Chef Louis Grondard, he started the Scribe kitchens.
Yannick Alleno is the executive chef of eighteen restaurants across the world. His Alléno Paris au Pavillon Ledoyen, located in the Champs-Élysées gardens, is one of Paris's oldest restaurants. In the French Michelin Guide 2020, it's a constellation of Michelin stars, with three star-rated restaurants. Pavillon Ledoyen was named the world's most star-rated independent establishment in 2020. It's not only about getting stars for this French chef. Yannick Alléno has been researching and developing French food since 2013, to the point of launching his own culinary movement, Modern Cuisine. He examined sauces in depth as part of his studies and even invented a technique called Extractions®. This procedure, according to Yannick, allows for the concentration and perfection of flavors while also delivering texture, a long finish, and minerality.
