Chef Richard has more than 25 years of experience that has taken him from a traineeship at a 3* Michelin restaurant in France to part-ownership of one of the most important restaurant groups in Cambodia.

 

Richard’s career has brought him a wide and deep wealth of experience in kitchen and restaurant set-up and management. Driven by a quiet passion and determination to get things right, Richard has honed his skills at the highest levels of cooking and service in two continents.

 

In France, Cambodia, Singapore, and Indonesia, Richard has created restaurants, served as executive chef, and taken on other roles such as business development and marketing. In short, there are few aspects of setting up and running a restaurant that Richard doesn’t know backwards.
 

It is part of this passion to share which has driven Richard to reformulate his skills and knowledge to support others in their unique missions to create, cook and serve.
 

Chef Richard Gillet is the Vice-President of Zone ASIA PACIFIC of Disciples Escoffier International and the Founding Chairman of the Cambodia Delegation.
