Portrait of Antoine Gonnet
i. Biography
Antoine Gonnet's recent work is defined by moving from one disciplined dining room to the next without changing the basics: the chef's role at Le Pont de Brent, Switzerland (2022–2024) was a finite run, and the current post at Le Centre in Champéry, Switzerland extends that line. The sequence matters here more than the mythology. It marks a chef working through precision, control, and an addressable style of service rather than lingering on tenure for its own sake.
