Born in the foothills of the Jura Mountains, Anton Mosimann is the son of farmers who also ran a small restaurant in Nidau, near the town of Biel in the canton of Berne, Switzerland. Anton quickly learned the basics of cooking from his parents.
He developed his exceptional skills in leading restaurants in Switzerland, Italy, Belgium, Sweden, Canada and Japan before being appointed Executive Chef at the Dorchester in London. During his twelve years there, he raised the standard of cuisine to new heights and also became a well-known international television personality, before buying the old Belfry in London's Belgravia and transforming it into Mosimann's, the now legendary private dining club.
Its Swiss version is housed in a castle. He also operates a successful cooking school in London as well as continues to travel around the world following his manifold activities centred on the culinary arts.
