18 by Fréderic Anton Description

A French gastronomic project by five Michelin-starred Chef Fréderic Anton – 18 by Fréderic Anton – opens tonight(!!) at the previous location of L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon in Bund 18 (home to Ultraviolet by Paul Pairet, Mr & Mrs Bund, Hakkasan, Ginza Onodera, and KEV).

18 by Fréderic Anton is said acclaimed chef’s first maidan voyage outside of France, where he is currently in charge of three Michelin-starred Le Pré Catelan on Paris' Bois de Boulogne, one Michelin-starred Jules Verne on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, and one Michelin-starred Jules Verne gastronomic cruise on the Seine River – the only boat to have obtained a Michelin star. 

An impressive CV, to say the least. 

The day-to-day kitchen operations are helmed by Executive Chef Adrien Delcourt – the trusted Robin to Chef Fréderic’s Batman – who has dutifully worked alongside Anton for over ten years, an integral player in the opening of his two latest Paris outposts. 

Together, the duo will update the menu seasonally, with Anton returning to the city quarterly, thus affording him the shiniest new seat on the ever-stretching roster of A-list chefs who have franchised their restaurants into Shanghai.
