Chef Nicolas Isnard Originally from the South of France, Chef Isnard learnt his passion for food from his Italian grandmother, cooking by her side as a child. He has since worked in many renowned restaurants in France, such as one Michelin star Le Vieux Logis, and the two Michelin stars La Rotonde in Lyon. At the age of 25, he was Chef de cuisine at L Auberge du Vieux Puits under three Michelin-starred Chef Gilles Goujon. Currently, Chef Isnard co-owns L Auberge de la Charme located near Dijon, the capital city of the historic Burgundy region in Eastern France, where he earned a Michelin star in 2009 within a year of the restaurant operation. The restaurant was also awarded three Gault & Millau toques. Chef Nicolas s cuisine combines tradition and innovation. His cooking philosophy can be reflected through one of his signature dishes the Contemporary Onion Soup, made with an onion ice cream with crispy onions and bread crumbs served in a warm soup which enhances the flavour of the onions.
