DAVY TISSOT INSTITUT PAUL BOCUSE

Davy has held the title "Meilleur Ouvrier de France" (“Best Craftsman of France”) since 2004. As a chef, he successively worked La Villa Florentine* restaurant and the Saisons* restaurant located in the famous institute of higher management education in Culinary Arts and Hospitality: Institut Paul Bocuse, which has now become the “Lyfe Institute”. Davy Tissot obtained a star in the Michelin Guide there in 2020, rewarding the first training restaurant in France. In 2021, he won the prestigious international Bocuse d'or competition for France. What makes this title even more special is the nature of the trophy itself since it bears the image of Paul Bocuse himself. "Monsieur Paul" as Davy affectionately calls him, hired him when he was only sixteen years old.

"I enjoy my new role as ambassador of the French gastronomy immensely. Travelling and meeting new cultures have enriched my life. I am proud to have trained the French team led by the first female French chef Naïs Pirollet, for the finals of the Bocuse d'Or. Being a mentor to the younger generation gives me a lot of energy and joie de vivre. Besides, I love having more time and being able to exercise every day."
