The Team
Christian Le Squer
Executive ChefThe amplification of simple ingredients is Chef Christian's life’s work. The Brittany-born chef’s skill in drawing out delicate flavors has garnered him the most prestigious awards the world of gourmet cuisine has to offer, culminating in Le Cinq’s third Michelin star.
"We use the French culinary heritage as a base and bring it up to date. It’s a long process, like craftsman’s work. It’s the pure essence of luxury."
Eric Beaumard
Restaurant DirectorEric’s passion for harmonizing wine and food is evident in each culinary creation at Four Seasons, where he has led our three restaurants to numerous accolades and Michelin stars. But he’s perhaps most proud of creating Le Cinq’s 50,000-bottle wine cellar, which represents the rich diversity of the great vineyards of France and the rest of the world and produces the perfect bottle for every meal.
“Sommellerie’ is not only my job but also my passion. I love travelling throughout French vineyards, meeting the wine producers and discovering and tasting new treasures.”
