Meet John Hornslien, sous chef at Ouest. 👨🏻🍳
John has spent the past few years working closely alongside Head Chef Alexander, becoming an important part of the kitchen and of Alexander’s Bocuse d’Or journey, where he played a key role in the preparation and served as commis.
Competition is something John knows well himself. He has taken part in several culinary competitions, including Young Chef of the Year in Norway, bringing that same focus, discipline and ambition into the kitchen every day.
Still early in his career, but already with plenty of experience behind him, John is very much part of what keeps the Ouest kitchen moving forward.
