Over the past two decades, he has peppered the streets of New Orleans’ Warehouse District with acclaimed restaurants, including Herbsaint, Cochon, Cochon Butcher, Pêche Seafood Grill, La Boulangerie, Gianna and his private event facility, Calcasieu. For this James Beard Award winner, his partnership with Four Seasons is an exciting opportunity to spotlight the best of Gulf Coast regional cuisine while providing the highest standards in service.
