His international career includes experiences at Hotel Winsor Clovis in Paris, Hotel Helton Kennedy in New York, Boucairre Meridiane in Martinique, and Vis Palace Grand Corniche in Monte Carlo.

Working with Mary Piscini, Philippe learned the secrets of Brescian cuisine and earned two Michelin stars in 2001 with Miramonti l’Altro.
Philippe has had international experience, including consulting for L’Altro in Hong Kong until April 2017.
He was a guest on MasterChef 3 and hosted The Chef 2 in 2014.
