ALAIN DUCASSE
New York

While many top restaurateurs have been bitten by the expansion bug, who besides Alain Ducasse would dare open a new eatery in Beirut? But despite having 17 locations on three continents, he’s still been able to maintain the excellence at Jumeirah Essex House (now JW Marriott Essex House New York). Spending an evening at Ducasse is more than having dinner in a multi-star restaurant. It’s an experience in the refinement of a lifestyle.
