Chef Darren Brown Food and family have always woven the fabric of Chef Darren Brown`s life. Born in Coquitlam, British Columbia, he remembers being a part of the family kitchen brigade from an early age. During summers spent on B.C.`s Sunshine Coast, he learned all about eating from the land and the sea; picnic tables would be loaded with fresh prawns and salmon caught that same morning. Darren`s first “official” kitchen duty began in the `90s, working with Chef Deb Connors at Horizons. Next, to CinCin; Darren worked seven days a week - as Pastry Chef by day and Line Cook by night to ensure he understood every “nook and cranny” of the operation, and then on to Whistler to open Quattro - the resort town`s top Italian restaurant. A year and a half later, he caught the travel bug, and discovered an appetite to take on French cuisine. And what better place than in Antibes, France and onboard Merv Griffin`s 150-foot yacht? Throughout summers in the Mediterranean and winters in the Caribbean, Darren cooked for celebrities ranging from ‘James Bond’ to the Princess of Spain. He became a student of food, finding answers to his own questions: why paella was different in Barcelona than it was in Madrid, why Italian meals are coursed the way that they are. He studied the culture of meals and how they came together. He traveled the Pacific Rim, from the West Indies to French Polynesia. Three years later, Darren headed back to North America to work as Executive Chef at Merv`s Trader Vic’s in the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel. He joined Rumjungle at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas as Executive Chef and oversaw China Grill, Blue Blanc Rouge Bistro as well as Red Square restaurant. Two years later he “caught the eye” of renowned Michelin three-star chef Alain Ducasse, from whom he learned about sourcing and being true to the product, knowing where it comes from and doing just the right thing enhance big flavours. In 2004 he opened the exclusive Mix Restaurant, and in 2005 was appointed Assistant Executive Chef at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, which required him to oversee the culinary operations of over 1.8 million square feet of event space, and in-room dining for 5,500 guestrooms; more than 20 restaurants. He then received the greatest news of all: he was going to be a father. There was only one place he wanted to raise his children: Vancouver, the ultimate destination for lifestyle, family, and for an accomplished culinary career. After all of his globetrotting, Darren believes it is fate that now brings him to the iconic Fairmont Pacific Rim as Executive Chef, and he knows his experience abroad will pay off immensely. His philosophy is simple, use the best product at the best time and let it speak for itself.

SautĂŠ the remaining bacon lardons and cippolini onions until golden, add the butternut squash and continue to cook until everything reaches a deep caramelization and squash is tender.

Once the sturgeon is done, add the prawns to your cassoulet and allow to poach in the surplus stock as it reduces down to a ragout consistency. Transfer to a bowl, top with sturgeon, creme fraiche and caviar.
