i. Biography
Anton Vasilyev is Head Chef of Chelsea Grill in London, United Kingdom, and executive chef at Sugaar in Paris, France. The work across both kitchens reads as a chef trained to move between rooms without changing standards: disciplined, direct, and built around a style that relies on clarity rather than noise.
The Climb
Training at Chez Bruce gave Anton Vasilyev a London foundation before Paris added another layer of pressure and responsibility at Sugaar, where he worked as Head Chef. The path is linear in the useful sense: from kitchen training to leadership, from one city to another, with each step adding range rather than spectacle. That international rhythm now sits behind his current role at Chelsea Grill, where experience from both cities informs the way he runs service.
Today
At Chelsea Grill, the Head Chef role places Anton Vasilyev at the point where execution, timing, and menu identity have to hold together in public. It is a position that depends on control more than display, and on making the room feel certain about what it is being served. The kitchen, in that sense, is a working vocabulary: clear, compact, and used without excess.
Signature
Anton's signature dishes include poussin, koolsla salad, and sour cherry pie. The list shows a chef working across different registers without losing precision. Poussin points to exacting cookery, koolsla salad brings freshness and texture into the frame, and sour cherry pie finishes with a sharper, more lasting note. Taken together, the dishes suggest balance built through contrast, with each plate held in a clean, controlled format.
