Today, we meet three-star chef Julien ROYER. His Odette restaurant in the heart of Singapore's iconic National Gallery and his daring French cuisine have earned him the title of Best Asian Restaurant for the second year running. Curious, eager to discover and share, last year he also opened his first restaurant in Hong Kong: Louise. Travel and cuisine are the undeniable rhythms in the life of this daring and generous young chef, whom we were delighted to meet for you.
Why do you travel? What do you gain from traveling?
