Chef De Cuisine

David Bohati

In 1998, David Bohati started his culinary career working up from washing dishes to cooking seafood in Victoria BC. For the next 10 years, he worked in high-volume restaurants on Vancouver Island before finding himself at Elixer in the Opus Hotel.

Bohati’s experience at Elixer changed the way he looked at cooking, giving him a hunger for creativity and an appreciation for impeccable ingredients.

In 2010, Bohati moved to Calgary where he worked at fine dining restaurant Rush before opening Market on 17th Ave . Working at Market allowed David to travel the world cooking for exclusive events. In 2014 he attended the Culinary Championships of Canada after winning the Calgary regional in 2014.
After a brief summer stint in Montreal Dave moved back to Calgary where he received a bronze medal at Gold Medal Plates with a classic, but modern take on a terrine.

Dave is currently the Head Chef at the historic fine dining restaurant “Teatro”, where he brings his creative flair, and love for exquisitely executed food to guests.

Pastry Chef

Daniel Ramon

Daniel Ramon grew up in Puebla, Mexico, for as long as he could remember he had a love for cooking and baking and the creativity that comes from building different profiles on a plate. He appreciates the romanticism that comes with seeing how flavours develop and translate to final presentation.

From a young age Daniel committed to pursuing a career in the culinary industry but, coming from a country where cooking wasn’t considered a real profession, he started second guessing his choice of pursuing a culinary career and signed up for university to be an economist, thankfully, he pursued the route that he was destined to take and after being accepted to The Arts Institute of Vancouver in 2008, he made his way to Canada with the full support of his family to a start a new career involving his love of Pastry.

In 2014, he started working with Beta Five, inspired by their innovative work with Pastry, especially chocolate. This propelled him to further innovate and further his creativity with pastry, chocolates, and bonbons. In 2015, he returned to Puebla where he and his sister opened a chocolate shop called Cuit.

Daniel likes to keep things continuously evolving, learning from his peers in the industry, exploring new ingredients, trying new recipes and methods, and accepting culinary challenges. Calgary has a healthy and progressive restaurant industry, and ultimately, that’s why he returned to Calgary to work for Teatro, appreciating their commitment to innovation and exploration.
