Chef Stéphane Jégo

Chef Owner
L'Ami Jean
Paris, France

Stéphane Jégo was hired at restaurant La Régalade as soon as it opened, in 1992, and he learned a lot there. In his twelve years of service alongside his « second father » Chef Yves Camdeborde, he took an active part in the birth of bistronomie.
In 2004, when Britton Stéphane Jégo decided to fly solo and take over L’Ami Jean, the oldest Basque establishment in Paris, he kept « the soul and warmth of the place.» He offers « the same products, from the same suppliers, as those of Michelin-starred restaurants, but cooked and served with more freedom, in a more creative and independent way. » In a word, Stéphane Jégo brings together simpleness and quality to « make excellence affordable. »
