Zachary Rozanski

Chef Zachary Rozanski is the executive chef of Corinne, the signature restaurant located within Le Méridien Denver Downtown, where he leads all culinary operations for the hotel.

He joined Corinne in March 2021 and brought with him an impressive culinary background working for nearly 14 years at Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts with longstanding stints at the brand's properties in Denver, Colo., Vail, Colo., Jackson Hole, Wyo. and St. Louis, Mo.

Chef Zachary inherited a love of food from his mother, who he cooked alongside as a teenager at their Southern Indiana home where his fondest memories were making Southern comfort food, from scratch, for large family gatherings.

From a young age, Chef Zachary had a passion for music, leading him to a professional music career playing brass and percussion in several high-profile bands that toured the country. Similarly, he played the DJ circuit, which landed him at top music venues across the U.S.

At 27, he traded his records for knives and rediscovered his love of cooking when he took an entry-level line cook position at Four Seasons Hotel St. Louis where he worked his way through the ranks moving from the lowest level of kitchen staff to the highest, all within one of the world's most respected luxury hospitality brands.

For his debut menu at Corinne, the self-taught chef is leveraging his fine dining expertise and introducing a more refined, elevated dining experience at the Downtown Denver neighborhood hotspot known for its classic, American comfort food with an emphasis on locally-sourced ingredients. Chef Zachary is diligent about understanding where each and every ingredient on his menu comes from, ensuring it's responsibly and sustainably sourced, whenever possible. Standouts of his new menu include the uniquely prepared Belly-On Pork Chop, served with heirloom carrots, roasted brussels and cider-maple jus, and the instantly popular Truffled Bucatini, made with handmade pasta and rich black truffles.

In his free time, Chef Zachary enjoys fishing Colorado's great rivers, riding his Harley Davidson and tackling outdoor adventures with his wife Ashley.
