Julien Royer to Open New Casual Restaurant in Singapore

Chef Julien Royer, in collaboration with The Lo & Behold Group, will open Claudine, a new casual restaurant in Singapore's Dempsey Hill, in the fall.

The French chef-owner of three-Michelin-starred Odette in Singapore, and one-Michelin-starred Louise in Hong Kong, says he will be catering to a wider audience, offering a relaxed style of dining with à la carte French cuisine, having been "inspired by the simple pleasure of feeding friends and family around a table". 

While the 36-year-old's French fine-dining restaurant Odette was inspired by his grandmother, Claudine will be an ode to his mother. "Claudine has been a long time in the making – it was inspired by my mother's cooking that I have held close to my heart for a long time,” he said.
