No stranger to the luxury realm, he also oversees Monsieur Dior, a restaurant at Christian Dior\u2019s newly renovated flagship store on Avenue Montaigne in Paris, and La Case, a restaurant at Cheval Blanc in St Barths.<\/p>\n<p>On his recent appointment to the Venice-Simplon Orient Express, Imbert told the media, \u201cFor me to want to take on a project, it must possess character, a legacy. It must have a story to tell.\u201d With its rich, glamorous history dating back to 1883, the Orient-Express naturally stoked his passion. His mantra is \u201cThe star is the train,\u201d with his fresh and simple approach to food serving to bolster an already heady experience.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7939\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7939\" class=\"wp-image-7939 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeanimbert_245833694_116485667470316_3652615477646270973_n-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeanimbert_245833694_116485667470316_3652615477646270973_n-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeanimbert_245833694_116485667470316_3652615477646270973_n-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeanimbert_245833694_116485667470316_3652615477646270973_n-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeanimbert_245833694_116485667470316_3652615477646270973_n.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7939\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">@jeanimbert<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>An inspiring menu<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Renowned for its gourmet cuisine, guests onboard the Venice-Simplon Orient Express have the choice of three elegant restaurant carriages from which to dine.

Cabin Service delicacies, designed by him will be served around the clock.<\/p>\n<p>The menu is exquisite, as to be expected from a Michelin star chef, with dishes including gourmet Beef Wellington, roasted turbot with Hollandaise sauce, avocado and burrata lobster salad and chicken breast in Albufera sauce. For dessert, mouthwatering options such as strawberry and vanilla vacherin and tiramisu souffl\u00e9 await. Inspired by vintage Venice-Simplon Orient Express menus, Jean Imbert\u2019s dishes are all closely linked to quality purveyors who can provide ingredients like morels, peaches and figs to reflect the shifting seasons.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7940\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7940\" class=\"wp-image-7940 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_286573910_1396724087475349_8168174238742639941_n-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_286573910_1396724087475349_8168174238742639941_n-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_286573910_1396724087475349_8168174238742639941_n-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_286573910_1396724087475349_8168174238742639941_n-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_286573910_1396724087475349_8168174238742639941_n.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7940\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">@vsoetrain<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Culinary excellence on the move<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finding consistent partners is one of the logistical hurdles of cooking on a train. Imbert needs to consider where the raw products are coming from, and which producers can guarantee delivery to the train in just a 20-minute window before departure. Food is cooked fresh on site and is managed by loading a fresh food supply in Venice, then reloading in Paris. Guests can even see the culinary delights they\u2019ll enjoy being packed on to the train (as is the case with the classic Lobster Brunch).<\/p>\n<p>The physical limitations of the kitchen can also be complex to navigate, providing challenges, even for a Michelin star chef. \u201cWhen there is complexity, you have to challenge yourself creatively\u201d, Imbert has said.\u00a0 The train has two kitchens of 118-square-foot, which fit three cooks and one chef or sous-chef at a time. Though well-appointed with a salamander, plancha, gas stove, bain-marie and three ovens, the menu has to take any limitations into consideration.<\/p>\n<p>Certain territory is also off limits in these moving kitchens. Some off-menu items are just not possible, such as French fries. This is because boiling oil and water in large batches is too dangerous if the train happens to stop short.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7941\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7941\" class=\"wp-image-7941 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_282798782_407355254584042_223260040693911402_n-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_282798782_407355254584042_223260040693911402_n-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_282798782_407355254584042_223260040693911402_n-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_282798782_407355254584042_223260040693911402_n-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.luxurygold.com\/lg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/vsoetrain_282798782_407355254584042_223260040693911402_n.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7941\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">@vsoetrain<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>A unique restaurant location<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Imbert has re-designed the visual identity and ambiance of the three\u00a01920s restaurant cars on the Venice-Simplon Orient Express \u2013 L\u2019Oriental, Etoile Du Nord, and C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur \u2013 to fuse his vision with the train\u2019s heritage.

Whether it\u2019s the silverware, a door handle or a glass of champagne, each detail is authentic. Drawing inspiration from the aristocrats of the early 1900s, the Venice-Simplon Orient Express offers customized luxury, created with the standards of today\u2019s technology and comfort. Elegant interiors reflect both the DNA of the train, and the ambience of its iconic destinations.
