Chef Alain Chabot brings passion, excitement, and exuberance in the flavors and the presentation on the menu at “Inspired Italian” restaurant Il Sogno.
Born just outside of Edmonton, Alberta and of French Canadian descent; Alain spent 3 years apprenticing with the Umberto Menghi restaurant group in Whistler B.C., which led him to many creative kitchens worldwide; Whistler, Victoria, Quebec, Switzerland and Italy. All areas of the kitchen would then fascinate and drive Chef Alain and his thirst for knowledge; Graduate red seal designation, Quebec City Quebec, Barry Callebaut chocolate workshops, and the infinite search for finest local products/producers.
“Excellent flavors are created from the best ingredients available, treated with respect and passion.” A philosophy he was taught and now teaches to the eager staff at Il Sogno. As he and his team strive to set the standard in fine dining.
Our clientele have quickly stipulated our signature dishes; Skewers of prosciutto and melon with granny smith apple reduction and candied pistachio, house made pastas such as ravioli filled with artichoke, finished in candied rabbit and pine nut emulsion or tortelloni filled with side stripe prawn and crab in a saffron corn nage and roasted red pepper compote. Although it would seem that the most popular way to dine is through “the taste of Il Sogno”; Leaving your palate in the hands of Chef Alain and his team to provide a 4 to 5 course dining experience, entrees such as roasted Veal Saltimbocca on gnocchi as well as the breast of duck with sour cherry gastrique and Savoy cabbage have too, become favorites. Buon Appetito!
