Chef Phillippe was born in France and developed his culinary skills working in Michelin-starred
restaurants alongside the legendary Chef Guy Savoy.
Although he loved his time in France, his adventurous nature took him around the world before he eventually settled in London, Ontario, with
his family.
Now leading the culinary team at the Elm Hurst Inn, Chef Phillippe believes in leading by example.
“When the staff see me working, they feel motivated to work too,” he says. A talented pastry chef as well, he takes pride in teaching his team the techniques he has mastered over the years.
Chef Phillippe has big dreams for the Elm Hurst, with a goal of earning a place in the Michelin Guide. “It would be a proud moment for everyone here,” he shares.
While striving for excellence, he remains focused on crafting new menus and helping his team grow in skill and confidence. “I have a
great team, and the Elm Hurst Inn already feels like home.”
