Training and career


In 1991, he started working as a chef assistant for ten months at the Palais de l'Élysée during his military service. He worked notably with Bernard Vaussion, sous-chef at that time. After having worked with famous other chefs for several years (Bruno Cirino, Yves Camdeborde, Christian Constant, Alain Ducasse), he became the chef of the restaurant Les Ambassadeurs at the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris, not hesitating on mixing the codes of the palace with popular cuisine.

In 2009, he started a new project and created with his colleague Thierry Costes a place with a unique personality in Paris. The domain of Thoumieux is declined in different places : the Brasserie Thoumieux (2009), the restaurant Jean-François Piège (2010) and the Hôtel Thoumieux (2011).

In February 2011, Jean-François Piège received directly two Michelin stars for his restaurant. His colleagues named him a few months later chef of the year after a secret vote organised by the special magazine Le Chef among 6,000 professionals (cooking chefs, pastry chefs, sommeliers).[1]

in 2014 he decides to go totally independently and opens Clover with his wife Élodie. The first of their restaurants, tucked away in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, offers a spontaneous and instinctive cuisine suited to the style of the intimate room where kitchen and restaurant become one. A year later the couple open the Grand Restaurant, his gastronomic establishment. Situated two steps away from the Gold Triangle of Paris it is a laboratory of careful thought and haute cuisine where the chef pushes the limits, discovers new boundaries of culinary art acquired through his many years of experience. The restaurant with its famous black and white fragmented glass ceiling is awarded two stars by the Guide Michelin in February 2016.

At the same Jean-François Piège opens in the centre of Paris another signature restaurant named the Clover Grill. Grilled or roasted on charcoal embers the incredible and luscious ingredients are revealed by the perfect mastering of the flames. A few doors down in the same area Jean-François Piège and his wife make another one of dreams come true by taking over the Poule au Pot and with this restaurant in their own going back in time to the values of the traditional French bourgeois cuisine. And finally in the evolution of the chef's cuisine at the beginning of 2018, Clover became Clover Green with a special focus on vegetables. A return to his roots, like a fundamental value of beyond the demonstration fore and foremost is the transmission of sharing pleasure and happiness.


Television


He shares his knowledge and his passion through his books and as a guest in various television programs such as Un dîner presque parfait (the French version of Come Dine with Me) and 100% Mag on M6. From 2010 to 2019, he is a member of the jury in the French version of Top Chef on the same channel.
