Executive Chef Joseph Rose
For a chef who says he thrives on shifts of focus and creating a range of dining experiences for his guests, the Palmer House Hilton is an ideal fit for Joseph Rose. As executive chef for the hotel’s fine-dining restaurant, Lockwood, as well as the Lockwood Bar, Potter’s Lounge, and the hotel’s in-room dining program, Rose brings to his job stellar credentials, impeccable technique, and a dedication to seasonality that is informed by his understanding of Midwest culture and local ingredients. “One of the things I love about working here is that I am cooking a variety of things—dinner, brunch, lunch, small plates, and more,” he says. “I get to combine all of these different elements under one roof, which also means our guests can experience something different depending on where they dine.”
Rose joined the Palmer House Hilton in fall 2012, bringing to his new role a variety of experiences in the fine-dining arena. He began his career working with Starwood Hotels & Resorts before joining the team at Sixteen, where, as chef de cuisine, he helped the restaurant achieve a Michelin star. Upon leaving Sixteen, Rose moved to The Pump Room, Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s resturant in the Gold Goast, where he joined the team as both executive sous chef and chef de cuisine.
