Martin Rouzot

CHEF/Sous Chef
Canton,Georgia

Summary

I’ve held various chef positions around France that has helped advance my cooking knowledge: Parisian bistro and palace Michelin starred, traditional Lyonnaise gastronomy at Brasserie Le Sud Paul Bocuse , local farm to table sourcing of products in Corsica at la Ghinghetta increasing my respect for the product and its development.

My experience around these different regions of France has been enriching due to the diversity of traditions and products.
the rigor of French technique and I am known as a strong team player.

Leading my various experiences through teamwork and organization taught me the rigor of the cooking profession.
from quality control to customer satisfaction.

I am looking for a position to work my skills in your establishment and continue learning new things. Dynamic, passionate, and creative challenges are my source of inspiration.
