Earned the nickname as the Chef Who Never Smiles, Chapelle takes student's performance and presentation in a serious matter which every presentations counts as if it is their conduct in their future careers, not just in French cuisine but also others involves cookery. Whoever failed to reach his eligible standard shall faced his worst judgment upon them, making this veteran lecturer a judge, jury and even executioner in this prestige academy. He always has been this strict until Yukihira Soma, the Yukihira transfer student's resourceful and innovative cooking that made him smile for the first time with the impression Soma's version of Boeuf Bourguignon; making Soma is the first (and the only) rookie chef intrigued by this iron heart veteran.

Behind this iron heart, Chapelle is also rather a fair lecturer who treated his students with fair results.
