But his career and trajectory have always been defined by global experience, exposure and a passion for embracing other cultures and cuisines.
Back in 2006, Australian Chef Shane Osborn of Hong Kong’s acclaimed Arcane hired Calvert to work at his two Michelin-starred Pied à Terre restaurant in London.
The culinary Holy Grail of Paris followed, with a stint at Epicure, which like Per Se is also a three Michelin-starred restaurant.
His global culinary journey continued with a move to Hong Kong and the contemporary Parisian bistro Belon, where he earned the restaurant a Michelin star and reached fourth place on the list of Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants.
Calvert is happy to modestly take the considerable accolade of the best restaurant in Asia with a pinch of salt, as it were.
