Jacques Pépin

Oceania Cruises’ Executive Culinary Director
since 2003, Master Chef Jacques Pépin has long
inspired our culinary team and our culinary
passions. An internationally renowned chef,
author of more than 30 cookbooks and host
of 13 PBS television series, he served as personal
chef to three French heads of state, including
Charles de Gaulle, and is also the recipient of
countless awards, including the American
Public Television’s Lifetime Achievement Award
and La Légion d’Honneur, France’s highest
civilian honour. In 2016, Master Chef Pépin
and his closest family founded the Jacques Pépin
Foundation to share Jacques’ passion for cooking
and mastery of technique with economically
disadvantaged individuals in order to encourage
them to seek pathways of success through
culinary professionalism.
