Clément Ponseel

Clément Ponseel is a private chef based in Normandy, with roots in Trouville and services available throughout France for events. He discovered his passion for cooking at 14 and trained for four years under two chefs and Disciples of Escoffier: Jacques Collet at Restaurant Le Bellevue in Villerville and Michelin-starred chef Eric Provost at L’Etrier, Royal Barrière Deauville. Now working independently, Clément creates tailored dining experiences using seasonal ingredients, prioritising local suppliers, short supply chains and knowledge of each product’s origin.

His cooking combines regional produce with influences from his travels and distinctive exotic flavours. Rather than offering fixed menus, he develops each meal with clients, shaping the experience around their preferences. Services include private dining at home for celebrations, business dinners, seminars, barbecues and outdoor cooking, as well as personalised cooking classes and group workshops for friends, family or colleagues.

Clément also offers gift vouchers for a customised cooking lesson or home dining service
