Team
AFFINTÉ has always used cuisine as a medium to explore the ultimate resonance between taste and art.
We are proud to announce the official launch of our dual-chef era – WESLEY ALENE, with authoritative international competition certification and authentic French culinary expertise; and JOHN XU, who blends modern Japanese-French culinary techniques that seamlessly integrate East and West.
One is deeply versed in French culinary tradition and possesses an international perspective; the other focuses on modern fusion and creative expression.
With the combined strength of these two chefs, we are redefining the contemporary experience of high-end French cuisine.
