He succeeds chef Régis Marcon, whose term as President ended in the first quarter of 2024.
Created in November 2009 with Joël Robuchon, Jacques Le Divellec and Guy Martin, the Studio Culinaire Servair brings together chefs and culinary experts to raise the quality standards of deferred catering and transpose the codes of haute cuisine to the meals of travellers around the world. Its mission is also to identify trends and innovations to optimise the offers designed by servair chefs.

Michel Roth needs no further introduction. This native of Lorraine is one of France’s most successful chefs, with a list of the most prestigious awards in the world of gastronomy. His career in some of the finest establishments – Ledoyen, Lasserre, Ritz, etc. – and his many titles have made him a benchmark in terms of expertise and haute cuisine. A man of great simplicity, Michel Roth enjoys sharing his technique, experience and ideas with the younger generation. Today, he is a consultant chef for numerous establishments and is considered one of the great specialists in travel catering. Michel Roth has been a member of the Studio Culinaire Servair since 2013. On numerous occasions, he has designed menus for Air France’s Business and First classes.
I’m very proud and honoured to succeed our friend Régis, whose ideas, commitment and actions gave the Studio Culinaire servair its impetus, as did his predecessors Joël and Guy. Together with my colleagues in the Studio Culinaire, I will continue to promote our Manifesto for Responsible and Sustainable Cuisine, and I will continue, develop and refine all our work, from training to innovation, with the same passion that drives us all
