InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort has promoted Jean-Louis Angulo to chef de cuisine of La Maison 1888, the only Michelin-star restaurant in Central Vietnam.
Angulo, who served as the establishment’s sous chef for the past two years, succeeds a lineage of culinary icons including Michel Roux and Pierre Gagnaire. He will lead the kitchen under the direction of chef Christian Le Squer, his long-time mentor, and the three-Michelin-star veteran of Le Cinq at Four Seasons Hotel George V Paris.
Born in France to Peruvian parents and trained in Paris, Angulo’s career includes high-pressure roles at L’Espadon at the Ritz Paris and Gordon Ramsay au Trianon in Versailles.
In his new role, Angulo will manage the restaurant’s “haute couture” culinary operations in collaboration with head sommelier Amedeo Bellini.
