Born in Vichy, he began his apprenticeship at age 15 with the famed Troisgros brothers, Jean and Pierre, in Roanne and then moved on to Lyons to work under the tutelage of Paul Bocuse. Then came three years at Maxim's in Paris.<br /><br />Chef Kurt Fleischfresser/The Coach House in Oklahoma City<br />Kurt began his career at Le Vichyssoise in Chicago working under Chef Bernard Cretier, then further honed his culinary skills while working at the following:<br />• The French Room at The Adolphus Hotel in Dallas <br />• Enjolie at The Mandalay Four Seasons in Los Colinas <br />• Vincent’s on Camelback in Phoenix <br />• La Champagne at the Registry Resort in Scottsdale. <br />In April of 2009, Kurt was awarded the Medaille de Merite by L’Academie de Gastronomie Brillat-Savarin for his contributions in education in the culinary arts.
