Members of Bailliage de l'Alberta à Calgary Receive Honours

Maître Rôtisseur Paul Rogalski, Co-Owner of Rouge restaurant in Calgary together with his partner Olivier Reynaud has been named to the list of the San Pellegrino World’s Best 100 Restaurants. Rouge Restaurant has placed #60 in this very prestigious listing. We are also very pleased that Rôtisseur Michael Dekker, who represented Canada in the Jeunes Commis Rôtisseurs Competition in Paris in 2008 (he received the Silver Medal), is the Executive Chef at Rouge.

The list is the result of an extensive poll of the world’s most celebrated chefs, renowned food critics, leading restaurateurs and well-travelled gourmands.

Rouge is located in the former home of A.E. Cross, one of The Big Four, and was built in 1891. The Cross House is a designated Calgary Municipal and Province of Alberta Heritage site. The house is nested on the banks of The Bow River in the beautiful and historic community of Inglewood. Seasonally, the outdoor garden and patio are available for dining and private functions. The garden area covers 6 city lots and is adorned with enormous trees, flowers, and native shrubs. It truly is a retreat from the every day.

Olivier and Paul have independently cultivated their skills and culinary perspective in nine different countries. They knew if they could take the best in service and food preparation from their experiences, they could dazzle patrons, food critics and food writers alike.

On behalf of all the members of la Chaîne des Rôtisseurs in Canada, I congratulate them for their amazing achievement.

I would like to congratulate all of our members who have achieved so much. I have no doubt that the Bailliage de l'Alberta a Calgary has some of the greatest culinary talent in the world.
