Before opening his little jewel in Bali, the Mozaic restaurant in Ubud, Chris has been working as the sous chef of David Bouley in NY, executive chef at the Legian Suites in Bali and head chef of Thomas Keller’s French Bistro Bouchon in California. Missing the mystic of Bali and finally expressing his own style of cooking, Chris creates exquisite flavors with indonesian ingredients and western style and techniques. The Mozaic restaurant opened in 2001 it’s doors.
