Youssef Akiki, chef of many projects
bio

Youssef Akiki left the Burgundy restaurant after 10 years of loyal service, as well as Oh Bakehouse, to devote himself to the Paname restaurant (in which he no longer has a share), his consulting company Kitchen Backstage, and above all his new project Brût. Located in his village of Hrajel, this inn offers tasting menus without a menu, inspired by local traditions. In 2023, he opened Butler's Table by Youssef Akiki, the outcome of a collaboration between him and Élie Khoury, the restaurant's manager.
