Jeddah, Saudi Arabia - 3 January, 2011 - Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has appointed Daniel Echasseriau as Executive Chef for Rosewood Corniche, Jeddah's premier hotel.

A French national, Chef Echasseriau has over 17 years of culinary arts experience, including six as an Executive Chef. He will oversee the entire culinary direction for all the Rosewood Corniche's food and beverage venues including the acclaimed Ginza I Chome, Noodles, Habsburg, and Soleil, in addition to managing the hotel's in-room dining and catering.
