About Chef Philippe
The Making of Chef Philippe
Chef Philippe Peretti is from Corsica and became fascinated with food at a young age, showing a keen interest in French culinary art. He entered the profession by training for many years under some of the top chefs in various Michelin-starred kitchens in France. He also holds diplomas in both Cooking and Restaurant Management from leading professional schools in France and England.
Like many gifted young chefs, Philippe has traveled the world, gaining knowledge and experience of different cuisines by working in different places. Besides France, he has worked in New York, Hawaii, Israel and more. His journey has taken him through England, America, Australia, China, Japan, Cambodia and most of South-East Asia.
Finding a Home in Thailand
Philippe was commissioned by Prince Norodom Ranariddh of Cambodia to help set up the Palace’s Food and Beverage menu and to train its team. After 20 years of travel, he fell in love with Thailand by chance during a holiday and decided to make it his home. In 2005, Thai Airways invited him to exclusively design its First and Business Class in-flight menus for the Bangkok–Europe and Bangkok–Australia routes.
