The Landings St. Lucia has appointed René Yaron Cahane as its new executive head chef.

“My experience spans all aspects of food preparation, from managing overall operations to optimizing organizational processes and ensuring concept delivery,” Cahane said.

“Chef René is a highly accomplished culinary professional and we welcome his expertise here as we bolster our standards to even greater levels of excellence,” said Wilbert Mason, General Manager of The Landings St Lucia.

Cahane is skilled and experienced in cooking classical French, modern European, creative Caribbean and traditional British foods.

“My love of the culinary world has also led me to endeavor to learn many global cuisines, and I am proficient in an eclectic range of modern and traditional food styles and techniques,” he said.
