Chef Chris Salans Honored by the French Government

The Mozaic Group is proud to announce that Chris Salans, chef-owner of Mozaic Restaurant Gastronomique and Dine@Home, Bali, has just been granted the Order of Agricultural Merit by the government of France.

The Order of Agricultural Merit was established in 1883 by the Republic of France to reward exceptional service in the fields of agriculture and gastronomy. This is the second award Chef Salans has been granted by the French government. In 2019, he was inducted as a Maître Cuisinier de France in recognition of his pioneering cuisine employing French techniques with Indonesian flavors.

I hope that this shines light on Bali and Indonesia as a world-class culinary destination because in these difficult times we all need it.”

The event will be held at Mozaic restaurant in Ubud on Sunday September 27th with reservations available from 6pm until 9.30pm for a maximum of 60 guests. Price for dinner will be IDR1,250,000,++/person for a 7-course tasting menu and IDR1,600,000,++/person for a 9-course tasting menu.
