Chef Philippe Verpiand has over 20 years of experience delivering the highest quality, gourmet cuisine throughout France and the United States. Philippe’s talents were refined through working with world-renowned chefs in Provence, Biarritz and the French Riviera. Philippe arrived in San Diego at the request of local chef, Jean-Michel Diot of Tapenade Restaurant in La Jolla, where he served as the Chef de Cuisine for the past 7 years.

Originally from Cavaillon France, a southern region known for sweet and fragrant melons. Philippe will bring to the Santaluz and surrounding communities the regional flair of his hometown cuisine and inspiration from the Mediterranean.

To compliment Philippe’s talent in the kitchen, Francois C. Sagit gracefully balances the expertise of management at the front of the restaurant. Francois comes to Cavaillon Restaurant from Mister A’s in San Diego. Francois’ attention to detail matches that of the Chef’s to create a topnotch dining experience.
