Eric Desbordes Joins Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora as Executive Chef

Eric Desbordes has joined the Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora as Executive Chef.

Inspired by the cooking he grew up with at home in France, Eric began his culinary career with a pair of apprenticeships and a series of kitchen jobs in Paris.

That experience led him to the regaled Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris, where he spent the next three years learning from three-Michelin starred masters.

From there, Eric worked for another of the world’s greatest chefs at the three-Michelin starred La Table de Joël Robuchon as chef de partie, and onto Paris’ Pershing Hall Hotel and Hotel Le Bristol as chef de cuisine.

Island life then called, leading him to the famed Eden Rock Hotel in St. Barths as executive chef, and onto a private chef role for luxury villas.

He ventured back to France as executive chef of La Bastide de Gordes, before rejoining Four Seasons as Executive Chef of the luxurious Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora.

“Chef Desbordes is a welcome addition to our island family,” said Maria Jagla, General Manager of Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora. “He brings an incredible profile of experience and talent to us, which will surely delight our guests as we continue moving the dining experience forward and upward.”

Eric obtained his CAP Cuisine diploma in Paris at Ecole Hotelerie Jean Drouant, and speaks English and French.

He enjoys motorcycles, jet ski, squash, cinema, travel, music and spending precious time with his wife Eloise and daughter Leeah.
