Olivier Dubreuil was born in Rochefort, a coastal town northwest of Bordeaux, France. At a very young age, Olivier was instilled with a respect and enthusiasm for cooking. His grandmother’s garden was his market and he began creating family meals from the quality and freshness found there. In 1989, Olivier departed to begin a career with Club Mediterranee, and the journey brought with it its own gastronomic tutelage.
His gourmet dining experience in the United States began at the historic Desert Inn Hotel, 1996 in Las Vegas.
