Michael Boufassa

Half a century in the service of Gastronomy Luxury hotels.

When I am asked to talk about my professional career, I start with this quote from the famous American writer Ernest Hemingway “When I dream of Heaven, I always find myself transplanted at the RITZ in Paris”

It is this legendary Palace that gave me training, a promotion, a permanent imprint of the design of luxury hotels and gastronomy for 16 years thanks to two men, one in the kitchen, Auguste Escoffier, the other in the dining room, César Ritz, two pioneers, visionaries who revolutionized our fascinating profession with the motto – Luxury, Perfection, Discretion, Benevolence – Motto that I have devised myself to practice for half a century in 4 establishments, The Ritz , Le Roi Dagobert, Le Royal, Le Cercle Munster.

My goal as part of my Business Mentoring mission is to pass my experience on to future Horesca professionals,
