When he is not behind the stoves, Jean Imbert displays his friendships with celebrities on social networks. Singers, athletes, actors… the winner of the third season of Top Chefreceives a large number of stars of national and international in its restaurant, The Mahogany, located in the XVIe arrondissement of Paris. If he has now the habit of cooking for Johnny Hallyday and Marion Cotillard, with whom he became friend, the chef has also had the great opportunity to cook up some dishes for the iconic Robert De Niro. A happiness never comes alone, he even ate with him.”At midnight, he was dropped off in a car by Luc Besson. I thought that at this hour, it would take just a cafe, but it asked me for a menu tasting! We ate together until 3: 00 in the morning !“, told it to Puremedias in 2012. Mireille Darc appreciated also its cuisine.

If he can boast of having been the personal chef of Beyoncé and Jay Z during their recent stay in Paris and be requested for major events such as the recent Cannes film Festival, Jean Imbert did not forget his greatest dream : a Michelin star. “When I was small I dreamed of the three stars, gave it to the Inrocks 2013. Today, I go to the tv, I do eat artists, I kiffe. But I never forget that my job is to cook. It is very down-to-earth. I want the recognition from my peers, I want the pride of my parents. And I am very stubborn. My dream, I have not lost.”
