Daniel Rose is an American-born Paris-based chef.
Originally from Wilmette, Illinois, Rose moved to France for undergraduate studies at the American University of Paris.[1] He spent a year at the Institut Paul Bocuse in Lyon. He apprenticed at the Bruneau Restaurant, a three-star in Brussels, and worked at the luxurious Hotel Meurice with Yannick Alléno.[2]
Rose opened his restaurant Spring in Paris in 2006. It immediately drew enthusiastic reviews from the Michelin guide and Le Figaro, a leading French newspaper.[3] Rose’s approach is to use seasonal produce and cook for small groups, seeking to create a tranquil dining experience.[4][5]
In summer 2010, Spring relocated to a new location near the Louvre. The new space, located in the first arrondissement is almost 10 times the size of the previous location. Co-chef is Rose's girlfriend Marie-Aude Mery.[6]
Rose is also working on a series for PBS about food and cooking in France.[7]
