New Faces at Arbitrageur
......................................................................................................
This month we would like to welcome a few new faces to the Arbi family: keeping with our frenchy theme we have 5 new additions to our team - all hailing from the Hexagon.
Joining our kitchen, Sous Chef Sebastien Cogne continues Chris Green’s classic french and european cuisine, bringing his own classical training under Michelin starred chefs to your palates!
On the front of house we say ‘Bonjour’ to Angie and Lilou our french waitresses, Sylvaine our new Sommelier and to Sarah as Maitre d’Hotel. Although Sarah is not strictly french, 6 years of living in France has rubbed off on her!
So if you want to practice a bit of ‘francais’ don’t hesitate to chat away to our staff!
