His impressive resume includes prestigious establishments such as Le Pré Catelan (three stars) in Paris, L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon (two stars), Le Jules Verne (one star) atop the Eiffel Tower, and L’Orangerie at Four Seasons George V (one star). Adrien was the Executive Chef when Le Jules Verne was awarded it's first Michelin star in 2019 and Le Jules Verne was awarded two stars this year.
Throughout his career, Adrien has honed his culinary skills under the mentorship of renowned chefs like Frederic Anton, Axel Menes, and David Bizet, developing a unique cooking style.

Adrien has a proven track record of managing kitchens and creating innovative dishes that delight customers, specializing in developing seasonal menus, and leading culinary teams in fast-paced environments.

New “Coucher de Soleil” Menu
Chef Delcourt and his team are delighted to debut the new “Coucher de Soleil” menu at L'ARÔME BY THE SEA. The menu is a discovery of the exceptional cuisine from Adrien, which pays homage to the mentors throughout his career and celebrates the best seasonal produce which the sea has to offer. Diners are welcomed with a fresh infusion of hibiscus which not only opens but also refreshes the palates for what lies ahead.
The "Coucher de Soleil" menu at L'ARÔME BY THE SEA celebrates the finest ocean delicacies and premium local ingredients. From the pristine waters of Japan and France, we feature delicate Japanese scallops, premium French turbot, and Kaviari’s luxurious Oscietra caviar. Adding a local touch, our Phuket lobster is elegantly served as a "macédoine," highlighting the island's seafood treasures. While seafood takes center stage, guests can also savor roasted duck sourced from Thailand’s renowned Klong Pai farm or choose an exceptional Japanese Wagyu beef for an elevated experience. The signature dish of Adrien’s menu is Langoustine Foie Gras, which shows a complex pairing between land and sea with a poached Atlantic Langoustine being served inside of a roti shell and pair with a delightfully creamy foie-gras jus. This dish shows off the key elements of Adrien’s culinary pillars: technique, savoir-faire and delicate balance.
Each dish captures the essence of refined French cuisine by the Andaman Sea, perfect for a sunset fine dining experience.
At the same time, we have introduced a more concise and refined Menu Découverte (Discovery Menu), designed to offer diners a more affordable way to experience the essence of Chef Adrien's signature dishes.

Our wine menu boasts more than 200 varieties, predominantly from France, with an emphasis on Bordeaux and Burgundy. Besides, the selection encompasses numerous lesser-known appellations, showcasing the extensive terroir found in French wines and the vast array of styles that pair excellently with the culinary creations of L’ARÔME BY THE SEA.
Our cellar reflects the richness and diversity of French vineyards but not only that, we have also included some selections from across the world which help to elevate the overall offering giving guests a taste of what is not always possible in French winemaking. At L’Arome our cuisine is heavily influenced by the sea and this goes hand in hand with our current wine selection which has a heavier focus on white wines with texture and acidity to pair with the freshly caught seafood on offer.
