About the Scottsdale
Bailliage
Welcome to the web site of the
Scottsdale Bailliage of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs. We are a Bailliage of
invited hospitality and food service professionals from the great hotels,
restaurants, clubs and hospitality affiliates in the Scottsdale area. Gastronomes of
discriminating taste have also been invited to join our Bailliage. As
professionals we challenge our culinary and service staffs to provide our
hospitality professional, and gastronome members and guests the epitome of epicurean
excellence. We present to each other and our gastronomes members the opportunity to
experience levels of cuisine, wine and service not normally available to the
public.
Our members and events will be
featured on this web site.
Our Gastronome members enjoy
the opportunity to share fine dining experiences with fellow members of like
mind and to interact and gain additional knowledge from the food service professionals in the
Chaîne. Our members become connoisseurs of wines and crafted beverages and are
warmly welcomed at restaurants throughout the world that display the Chaîne
Plaque.
As Professional members we wear
our ribbons and medals of the Chaîne with honor. A professional honor recognized
world wide. We demonstrate our expertise and creativity at events we host. We
also enjoy the patronage of knowledgeable Chaîne Gastronomes and their guests.
In addition, following our extraordinary schedules, we experience with our
spouse or friend epicurean excellence and the camaraderie of our peers at Chaîne
events.
A gala event each year
celebrates the induction of new members, who are presented the ribbons and
decorations of their Chaîne rank. Activities of La Chaîne are not limited to
grand dining, however. Diners amical - less formal dinners play an important
role in our schedule. This may include Chaîne picnics, wine tasting, and events
outside of the ordinary dining experience.
We support our local culinary
schools and established a local "Best Young Chef Rôtisseurs" Competition in
2006 as a prelude and training for the National contest. The local and then the
Far West Regional Competition will be in Scottsdale in the near future. The national Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Foundation provides scholarship funds
and has given in excess of $2,000,000 in scholarships to deserving hospitality
students. The National Chaîne holds two national competition each year
"Best Young Chef Rôtisseurs" and "Best Young Sommelier" The winner from each of
10 regions progresses to national and international competition.
Our members also enjoy the U.S.
Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Gastronome, a full-color high quality magazine as well as
an International Gastronome Magazine that
features events from Bailliage's throughout the country and the world.
