La Caille is the premier French Restaurant in Salt Lake City
and is proud to introduce Rebecca Millican as their new French pastry chef. Rebecca was the Pastry Chef Instructor at the
Institute of Culinary Education in New York City for 10 years. Prior to joining
the faculty at ICE, Rebecca worked at the 4-star Ryland Inn in Whitehouse, NJ,
L'Espinasse in New York and Park Pastries in Hoboken. In addition to chocolate
work, her specialties include wedding cakes, candy making, and gingerbread
houses.
She has had her work featured on television and in print.
She has appeared on the Better Homes and Gardens television show, the Food
Network, and Good Day New York. Her gingerbread houses and holiday specialties
have also been featured in The New York Post and Country Living Gardener
magazine. In 2005 Rebecca coached a team of students to a first place ribbon in
the "Gingerbread on Broadway" competition held at the New York
Marriott Marquis Hotel. When Rebecca returned to Salt Lake City, she became an
acclaimed chocolatier and continued to sharpen her pastry craft.
La Caille invested in a pastry chef because they value all courses
of the meal. It has been Rebecca’s experience that in many establishments —
even fine dining — the dessert is an afterthought. La Caille wants to give you
the best experience from beginning to end. This impression includes lovely
grounds, impeccable service, and of course a five-star dining experience.
Rebecca is excited to introduce desserts that complement the
seasonal menu of La Caille. For the fall and winter season, Rebecca has created
a delicious, tantalizing chocolate and caramel cake. The richness of the cake
is perfectly balanced with a baked grapefruit infused with rosemary. The
pumpkin gingerbread tiramisu has become the staff favorite. Other seasonal
favorites will include peppermint and eggnog themed items. A twist on a
traditional Buche De Noel is also expected to premier at La Caille this winter.
To celebrate the upcoming holiday season and the arrival of
Rebecca, La Caille is hosting their third annual Lights On Celebration. You are
invited to visit La Caille and stroll the grounds trimmed in holiday sparkling lights. During the
celebration, guests are invited to sip hot chocolate and taste Rebecca’s famous
homemade marshmallows and cookies.
Come experience not only the best French Cuisine in Salt
Lake City, but also the finest French pastries and chocolate at its best. We
would love to satisfy your sweet tooth!
