Luxury Experience Magazine met Chef Frédéric Breuil at the 15th St. Moritz Gourmet Festival in Switzerland in January 2008, and enjoyed watching him in action during the Kitchen Party at Badrutt’s Palace.
The saying that too many chefs spoil the soup does not apply to Chef Frédéric Breuil, a veteran of two 3-star Michelin restaurants in France, who beautifully orchestrated 10 international top toques of the world cooking in his kitchen for the highly anticipated Kitchen Party that takes place during the St. Moritz Gourmet Festival each year.
French chef Frédéric Breuil has been a busy man this year, as in addition to participating in the St. Moritz Gourmet Festival where he hosted Chef Ryan Smith from South Africa of Restaurant Mange Tout, he also created a special "SWISS Taste of Switzerland" menu for First Class passengers flying on Swiss International Air Lines (November 2007 until March 2008). He graciously shares a special recipe from Badrutt’s Palace for Traditional Pojarksy "Helen Badrutt."
