We are truly excited to welcome a new culinary team onboard the Rocky Mountaineer routes in 2008. The team now includes 4 renowned chefs, who will lead a superb dining experience and enhance the GoldLeaf brand even further.
Working as a chef or in the galley of the train is a unique experience. I have had the opportunity to watch this first hand many times and continue to be amazed with the dexterity and teamwork involved. Imagine a 200 square foot stainless steel kitchen with a four foot aisle and no windows. Then imagine imagine as the train curves, climbs and gently rocks along the route - only you do not know when the next movement will occur as you synchronize your work with a team of 5 talented professionals, preparing 140 a la carte presentations a day in each GoldLeaf dome.
The results are impressive and the chefs have been working hard in the "off season" to ensure the dining experience matches the outstanding scenery in western Canada. There is more on the culinary experience found here. Bon appetit!
