HOW CHEF ASHFER BIJU SAVED THE PIERRE HOTEL’S FOOD SCENE

We used to be unimpressed by the Pierre Hotel’s restaurant over the last years. (Just “Okay” food) Since Chef Ashfer Biju took over the new restaurant “Perrine”, things have changed for the good.

We have been impressed by Chef Biju's clear vision and precise execution of his food. He is obviously a happy Chef, entirely free from any corporate pressure and expresses himself with his natural elegance. We understand perfectly what he wants to convey in his food: a strong classic, French inspired technique infused with a subtle Indian sophistication and refinement. The Pierre’s glorious heritage of culinary perfection is back with Chef Biju.

A special mention for Executive Pastry Chef Michael Mignano’s desserts, made with love and authentic emotion.
