Chef Stephane Liot brings with him a lifetime of experience in French cooking. Chef Steph trained in Paris at La Cuisine du Lycee Marie Durand. He began his journey in the French kitchen at a very young age, learning from his father who was a chef.
Living in France, Montreal, England, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, and Cuba has provided a diverse background in international cuisine. Chef Steph absorbed methods, tastes, traditions, and ingredients from all over the world that he draws upon to create incredible and unique depths of flavor in his dishes. Most recently, Chef Steph was brandishing his culinary talents at the well-known Sunset Boulevard restaurant, “The Butcher the Baker and the Cappuccino Maker.”
For Chef Steph, Le Petit Marché represents an opportunity to showcase his take on French cuisine, inspired by the L.A. lifestyle. “In France, the cuisine is constantly growing. I want to ensure, that in Los Angeles, we also expand how we envision classic French dishes,” said Liot. In addition to his French-inspired cuisine, Chef Steph has created an extensive plant-based menu, reflecting his passion for California’s finest produce — using the freshest local, seasonal and sustainable ingredients.
If Chef Steph could ever get out of the kitchen, he would probably enjoy traveling the world, having a drink beachside or maybe he would get back to playing tennis. In the meantime, he will stay put in the kitchen and continue to create delicious dishes that reflect his take on his native French cuisine.
