Kamonchat Waiyakan returns to Geneva with a suitcase full of experience, which she shares with us at Anouch.

In the middle of the new restaurant Anouchrestaurant, that sommelier Kamonchat Waiyakan has chosen to settle down after her many travels. She trained with some of the greatest, from Arnaud Chambost, MoF, who passed on to her the flame of sommelier passion, to Gerard Basset, in England. She will continue to evolve with Philippe Chevrier and Vincent Debergé in the establishments that need no introduction: Domaine de Châteauvieux and Le Chat Botté.

She then hit the road again, and her adventure began at Château Marsau with Anne Laurence, who trained her in harvesting and vinification. She then flew to Asia, where she blossomed as head sommelier at Louise, a Michelin-starred restaurant in Hong Kong. Once she had acquired a thorough knowledge of the winegrowers of our regions, she was happy to help her customers discover our grape varieties and our riches.

From the other side of the planet, she was seduced by the Anouch project. The all-encompassing world of the restaurant, the contemporary art of living, the emphasis on taste and the human element at the center of her preoccupations, all fit perfectly with her, and that’s why she’s (finally) putting down her corkscrew. Don’t hesitate to come and discover this rich personality, who will take you on a journey through her world and (re)discover the wines of our terroir.
