Our Team

 

NICOLAS DÉMURGÉ

Growing up in the countryside of Lyon, Nicolas Démurgé discovered culinary arts early, cooking chocolate yogurt cake with his mother at the young age of five. As he grew older, he veered away from the kitchen and obtained a degree in electrical engineering, graduated from business school, and spent time traveling the world.

After discovering his passion for cooking, he had an incredible journey of meeting amazing chefs in the culinary world, where he learned more about the art of cooking. From there, Nicolas joined JM Group in opening Kristine’s, where his idea of a French bistro was born. He envisioned a place where people meet, with food for everyone. Where the cuisine is not the result of ego, but that the chefs are students of a century-old culinary tradition: simplicity.

This created Kristine’s, where French comfort food takes the stage, as the team works to always source the best product, perfecting their recipes, and keeping things simple. To Nicolas, simple is the most difficult way to cook - you can't hide.


 

CHRIS BARON

Chris Baron’s culinary journey started with a spark of inspiration from traveling through the Province of Québec, where he was drawn to the French influence of the cuisine. Taking from his experiences there, he began his education of the culinary arts, and discovered even more about what cooking means to him.

“Cooking creates a sense of community, bringing people together to share a moment, all while enjoying food in ways they might not have experienced before.”

With the refinement and versatility of French cuisine, he finds endless possibilities to create beautiful dishes & experiences. All of which can truly be felt in everything Chris brings to Kristine’s, from events like A Night in Paris, to a regular service, he strives to create those moments for all who enter Kristine’s.


 

ANNE-ELISABETH MUGNIER

Anne-Elisabeth first experimented making French desserts in the family kitchen in Brittany, France. She was trained in the art of French bread and Viennoiserie at the Ecole Internationale du Savoir-Faire Français and learned to craft chocolate at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York.

In 2015, she launches “Les Délices D'Annelise,” selling her French confections across different places on the East Coast, including the Princeton Farmers Market.

She developed her pastry skills working with mentors both in France and in the United States, and she gets a lot of joy combining flavors through the creation of new desserts.

She joined the team at Kristine’s as the Pastry Chef last year, where she focuses on the creativity and diversity of the dessert menu, with the goal of sharing her passion with the Princeton community.
