Louis-Philippe Vigilant, new 'signature' chef for Air France
Published
Air France has appointed a new 'signature' chef: Louis-Philippe Vigilant. This cook, originally from Martinique, will create dishes for the French airline. The name of this chef remains little known to the general public, even on his island.
Yet his career is remarkable. Louis-Philippe Vigilant is the first chef from Martinique to have earned a star in the Michelin Guide, a very important distinction in the world of gastronomy. Despite this success, he remains discreet and prefers to talk about his work rather than his fame.
This choice shows Air France's interest in overseas cuisine. The company is highlighting a chef who knows well the products and flavours of the French Antilles, while working for a clientele coming from all over France and the world. For passengers, this may mean a more varied culinary experience on board.
In short, Louis-Philippe Vigilant is a discreet cook but recognised for his talent. His appointment illustrates the growing place of overseas gastronomy in the offering of a major French company.
