The “Chef of the Stars” Officially Joins Press Club
In its ongoing journey to create refined dining experiences alongside premium event and catering services, Press Club Hanoi proudly marks a significant milestone with the arrival of Executive Chef Hervé Rodriguez, widely known as “the chef of the stars.”
This moment not only opens a new chapter for La Table Hanoia, but also further enriches the ecosystem of private dining, cocktail receptions, catering, and high-end event services at Press Club.

The Journey of “the Chef of the Stars” and a Spirit of Culinary Excellence

With more than 40 years devoted to the culinary arts, Hervé Rodriguez has built an international career shaped by some of the world’s most prestigious restaurants, many awarded 2–3 Michelin stars. He received his first Michelin star just six months after the opening of his very first restaurant — a rare achievement in the professional culinary world.
Beyond accolades, what defines Hervé Rodriguez is his discipline, precision, and constant pursuit of excellence. In his kitchen, every movement and every ingredient carries creative intention. The familiar call of “Ale!” sets the rhythm of a workspace where each moment has the potential to inspire a new idea or refine a dish further.

- Balance of flavors
- Refined presentation
- Customization according to the nature of each event
- Flexibility for catering and outdoor functions
