The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort, home of Lagoon by Jean-Georges restaurant, has long been known as a top culinary destination in French Polynesia.
To build upon its gourmet reputation, the resort is launching a new Culinary Experiences Series this summer featuring a one-of-a-kind collaboration with award-winning talent from the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris.
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 Chef, Boris Campanella, and France’s leading Sommelier Xavier Thuizat, both of the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris, will join The St. Regis’ Chef Nicolas Nguyen in Bora Bora for the Paris-Meets-French Polynesia Culinary Experience Week.
Foodies and wine enthusiasts alike are invited to indulge in unique food and beverage delights including an ‘Upside Down Menu’ concept at the resort’s Lagoon by Jean-Georges restaurant, signature St. Regis Champagne sabering, intimate wine tastings and cooking classes, customized menus, and a selection of fine wines chosen personally by Xavier Thuizat, who was named 2022’s Best Sommelier in France.
The Paris-Meets-French Polynesia Culinary Experience Week August 7 – 11 includes:
- 6 nights in Overwater Villa accommodations for two at The St. Regis Bora Bora
- Complimentary daily breakfast for two
- Wine tastings and consultations with Sommelier Xavier Thuizat and cooking classes with Chefs Campanella and Nguyen
- Grand Soir evening at Lagoon by Jean-Georges restaurant featuring the ‘Upside Down’ menu – a concept that flips traditional dining by having guests choose their wine first and then the chefs curate cuisine pairings for the meal based on the selected wine.
- Welcome signature St. Regis Champagne Sabering
