We chat to Craig Rogan, executive head chef at Dakota, Leeds Craig Rogan has learned from the best.
Craig Rogan has learned from the best. He is the son of Simon Rogan, the creative mastermind behind the three Michelin star dining destination L’Enclume in the Lake District – among many others across the UK and the Far East. Craig has always been around culinary royalty. And while you might expect he learned at his father’s knee, it has been the influence of some our greatest chefs – the ones who worked for his dad – who moulded his enthusiasm and talent.
Originally from Southampton and destined for a promising career in football, Craig diverted his attention to cooking, gaining a last-minute spot on a prestigious catering course at Bournemouth College. Since then, Craig has worked at some of the best restaurants in the north, including The French at The Midland Hotel and Manchester House, both in the city, as well as at Fera at Claridge's in London and, most recently, at the Grand Hotel in York where he won back its 3 AA Rosettes. But moving to Dakota in 2019 felt like coming home to Craig, who moved to Leeds to be near to son, Max.
