Congratulations to our most recent culinary extern Congratulations to our most recent culinary extern, Robert Hojonaki for his graduation from Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts! On Wednesday, Chef Maggie, Jackson, and Robby went to Escoffier’s Boulder campus to connect and interview students to recruit our next La Marmotte Externs. Because Robby opted to not travel back to Boulder from Telluride to attend his in-person graduation ceremony a couple weeks prior, while on campus we were able to cheer Robby on as he officially completed his degree with a private graduation ceremony with President of the Boulder Campus, Chef Kirk Bachmann! We’re so proud of Robby and his growth this summer. Robby will be returning to our team this winter season and we can’t wait to see what he’ll accomplish!

What a remarkable season it has been! We delighted What a remarkable season it has been! We delighted in welcoming diners from both near & far. 

Beyond our regular services, this season was a whirlwind of exciting & new experiences. We had the privilege of being asked to participate in two prestigious food and wine festivals, curating and presenting an 8-course dinner paired with wines by @andychabot and Eric Solomon (@telluridetable). We collaborated with a @beardfoundation nominated Best Chef, Chef @lindsay_autry, for a multi-course lunch complemented by wines from @daouvineyards. It was a weekend filled with a myriad of culinary events with renowned chefs from all over, and it was such an honor to cook at the Grand Tasting among some of the industry’s most notable at the @telluridereserve. We had the honor of hosting and cooking for several beautiful celebrations, including a wedding for one for our very own, our Maitre D, @mrineer. We participated in the Taste of Telluride, contributing to the raising funds for Telluride’s @onetoonementoring. We hosted another amazingly successful @escoffierschools extern who will be joining our team full time in the winter! We continued to mentor and train our team of hungry and eager young chefs, with one of our past culinary externs, @iamjacksonhussey being promoted to a Demi-Sous Chef role. Hosted @ifcfilms in celebration of the debut of the #LaPassiondeDodinBouffant #thetasteofthings. To top it off, we had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to collaborate on a menu and cook alongside the culinary legend, Chef @pierregagnaire

I’m immensely proud of our dedicated team for their growth and for rising to the challenge and soaring to new heights this summer. La Marmotte will be closed until December 14th, but please stay connected with us here for recaps of our summer & sneak peeks of what’s in store for this winter!

Now, we’re off to Denver to celebrate, recruit our next externs from @escoffierschools, & dine at some of @michelinguide’s latest additions in Colorado, including @beckon_denver. 

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your unwavering support and shared affection for our quaint and special French restaurant. See you in December! 🥂
