• Rob Benson - Executive Chef
Chef Rob Benson was born in Hammond Louisiana and if you know your food you know that Louisiana is a great place for a chef to develop his love of it. His interpretations of traditional Creole cuisine are influenced by his love of many different classic styles of edible artistry. Italian and Vietnamese are just a few of the examples of his ever-growing interest in mastering all aspects of the culinary realm. A true adventurer, Chef Benson, transforms an abundance of seasonal game and vegetables into one-of-a-kind creations thatoften leave one's palate questioning "How did he?". The answer is a combination of more than 20 years of experience and an unwavering passion for the perfect "taste". His idea of a before dinner cocktail hails from Brazil. A Caipirinha, with its South American heritage, would be his choice. And you can almost bet that on those treasured evenings at home with his charming wife, Lisa, he is uncorking a bottle of Prosecco. It would be an equally safe wager to assume that Stella, their beloved canine companion, is patiently awaiting her just rewards.
