Yann Klein’s journey

Trained in renowned restaurants, Yann Klein has worked in France, Switzerland and China. After twelve years alongside Éric Pras, including seven as executive chef at Maison Lameloise Shanghai, his story continues in Saint-Prex.

Originally from Alsace, Yann began his apprenticeship at sixteen. His career took him to the kitchens of Olivier Brulard*, Michel Troisgros*, Anne-Sophie Pic, Emmanuel Renaut* and Éric Pras**.

These experiences shaped his technical mastery and sensitivity to flavour. In Saint-Prex, he continues this exploration with the same curiosity, letting ingredients express themselves naturally.

Produce and craftspeople

The team works closely with passionate producers and craftspeople, respecting their expertise. Textures and seasoning come together in a thoughtful, deeply satisfying cuisine.
