Born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada, Chef Bob Milligan is an
accomplished passionate second generation Chef. His experience began in
1996 as a busier at his father's restaurant in Seattle Washington during
the summer visiting family. Since then, he has played a pivotal climb
working in every role within the food service industry before progressing
to a line cook and prep chef at Circus Circus Casino on the busy attraction
strip of Las Vegas.
Chef Bob started his schooling at the Art institute of Las Vegas;
however his time there was short lived having to consistently work multiple
jobs to survive on his own away from family. He soon learned top quality
service, intuitive perception and supply and demand from many points of
view throughout his many service industry positions. His hunger for
knowledge has expanded to developing his skills in multiple cooking
techniques, cuisine history and cross utilization. He then further
progressed in marketing and Sales, interacting with clients and learning
how to anticipate their needs and demands.
As a Kitchen Manager for 3 years, he garnered the skills and knowledge
of effectively making an operation profitable, minimizing waste by infusing
product into specials and new recipes generating additional revenue through
hands on training, consistency and daily monitoring. In 2010 his role as a
Sous Chef at a boutique hotel awarded him the ability to renovate and run
the entire Banquet Culinary department under the tutelage of 3 times
"Florida Iron Chef" winner Chef Joshua Bernstein all of which have garnered
certain specific skills and knowledge making him a highly equipped
Executive Chef at a corporate managed hotel on Disney Property were upon
taking on that role he has recreated the cuisine offered to current trends
and upscale variety, empowering staff and creating daily specials you would
not normally find anywhere else. With the belief cooking is a form of art
and should be done with pride and passion to bring forth that touch of
excellence, he has created new recipes with bold and strategic marriage of
flavors that complement the cuisines from all over the world.
