“1856 –Culinary Residence” is an upscale teaching restaurant, named after the year of Auburn University’s founding, anchoring the first floor of the new Tony & Libba Rane Culinary Science Center. Students in the Auburn University College of Human Sciences, Horst Schulze School of Hospitality Management work under the guidance of a Chef in Residence to prepare and serve an à la carte lunch menu and tasting menu format during dinner service.

1856 – Culinary Residence today proudly announces its third annual Chef in Residence, Joel Antunes of Le Logis in Cognac, France. Born and raised in the South of France, Chef Antunes learned his craft in some of the country’s finest restaurants before spreading his wings at restaurants around the world. He worked as executive chef at the Bangkok Oriental Mandarin Hotel, known at the time as the #1 hotel in the world, before moving to London to open Les Saveurs, where he earned a Michelin star. He then relocated to the United States to lead the award-winning Dining Room at The Ritz-Carlton, Buckhead. Ready for a new challenge, Chef Antunes ventured out on his own in Atlanta, opening Restaurant Joel, for which he earned a James Beard Foundation Award. He was later lured away to serve as the opening Executive Chef at the historic luxury Capital Hotel and its restaurant, One Eleven, in Little Rock, AR, which consistently received popular and critical acclaim during his tenure. Chef Antunes returned to France in 2022 and currently serves as the Chef in Residence for Forbes Travel Guide at Le Logis, an intimate luxury hotel in Cognac, France.
