Our Story
Aurelia’s passion for cooking blossomed in her grandmother’s kitchen in Lyon, where she learned the art of creating simple yet flavorful dishes. After a decade-long career in interior design, Aurelia followed her dream and opened the first Chez Antoinette in Covent Garden in 2014.
Joined by her husband, Jean-Baptiste Noel, who comes from a hotelier background, they expanded their vision with the opening of Chez Antoinette Victoria five years later. Together, they continue to share their love for hospitality and traditional French cuisine with Londoners and visitors alike.
