Marcel Vigneron (born May 3, 1980) [1] is an American chef, and is perhaps best known as the runner-up of the second season of Top Chef, placing behind Ilan Hall.
Vigneron is originally from Bainbridge, Washington, and currently residing in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he is a Master Cook at Joël Robuchon at the Mansion. He was educated at the Culinary Institute of America at the same time as Ilan Hall, and had a fellowship as a sous chef at the Institute's restaurant. [2]
A fan of the show attacked Vigneron with a bottle, requiring 30 stitches to close the wound over his eye. [3]
