About this person

Born in southwestern France on 13 September 1956, Ducasse became a Monégasque citizen and built a restaurant network few chefs have matched in scale or consistency. His flagship, Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester in London, holds three Michelin stars - the guide's highest mark. The through-line is control: identical standards, whether the kitchen is in Monaco, Paris, or Tokyo, executed by chefs trained in his exacting style. He turned cooking into an exportable system without losing the stars.
