Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester

This mid-November opening is set to be one of the most glittering events in the London restaurant calendar. The glamorous 80 seater will be located in a light elegant room with a contemporary design and will overlook Park Lane and Hyde Park.

The head chef is Italian born Nicola Canuti, but he will be cooking modern French dishes designed and created by Alain Ducasse. Nicola has previously worked for Ducasse and also Marco Pierre White. He was head chef of the award-winning Spoon restaurant in Mauritius. Head pastry chef is Angelo Ercolano, most recently at Spoon at Sanderson in London. He has also supervised pastry in other prestigious restaurants and hotels including the Grosvenor House in London.

The kitchen brigade will interpret Alain’s signature cuisine using a combination of fine French and British seasonal ingredients. “I rely on my executive chefs to translate my cuisine, and at the Dorchester I am blessed with a particularly gifted and capable brigade” explained Ducasse, who continued: “matched by the finesse of the front of house team, these key staff will be responsible for making Alain Ducasse at the Dorchester as perfect as possible every single day”.
