This 5 day event is a collaboration with Hotel de Crillon Paris’ Michelin Star Executive Chef, Boris Campanella, their award-winning Sommelier Xavier Thuizat, and The St. Regis' very own Chef Nicolas Nguyen. This new “Culinary Experiences Series” is being created to celebrate the hospitality and culinary traditions of The St. Regis’ founder John Jacob Astor IV and his mother Caroline Astor, a prominent Gilded Age socialite who was renowned for her elaborate gala balls, elegant private teas and exclusive midnight suppers.
From August 7-11, 2023, Michelin Star Executive Chef, Boris Campanella, and France’s top Sommelier, Xavier Thuizat, both of the Hôtel de Crillon Paris, will join The St. Regis’ Chef Nicolas Nguyen in Bora Bora for Paris-Meets-French Polynesia Culinary Experience Week.
