Australia's Longest-Running French Restaurant with the Same Chef/Owner
 

On October 1st, 2025, Chez Pascal celebrates an extraordinary milestone: 39 consecutive years with Chef Philippe Lebreux at the stove.
 

Since 1986, Philippe has been in the same kitchen, cooking magnifique authentic French cuisine, welcoming guests with the same warmth. In an era where restaurants change ownership, chefs move between kitchens, and concepts constantly evolve, this level of dedication is almost unheard of.
 

One Chef. One Vision. 39 Years.
 

Trained at Paris's prestigious L'ECOLE FERRANDI and mentored by three-Michelin-starred legend Paul Bocuse, Philippe brought old-world French technique to Sans Souci nearly four decades ago. 
 

Philippe hasn't just owned Chez Pascal for 39 years. He's been in the kitchen for 39 years. His hands have prepared every ox cheek braised for five hours. His voice has greeted diners at their tables. His passion has remained unwavering.
