THE KITCHEN AT NEON COWBOY

Chef Michael brings three decades of refined culinary expertise to private dining. A native of New Orleans' distinguished culinary tradition, he began his culinary journey at fifteen and rapidly distinguished himself through competition and leadership—earning two silver medals at Le Chaîne des Rôtisseurs and directing culinary operations for Denver's premier venues: Empower Field, Coors Field, Red Rocks, Fiddlers Green, and Ford Amphitheater.

His approach marries Southern heritage with refined technique—evident in signature creations such as chicken-fried quail with sweet-tea buttermilk and saffron-laced ravioli. Each dish reflects his unwavering commitment to seasonal excellence, precise execution, and ingredient integrity.

Now offering private chef services through Neon Cowboy, Chef Michael curates bespoke menus tailored to your vision, sourced from the region's finest producers.
