Chef Mike Ozero of Rae’s Bistro
Mike Ozero R.S.E. has been exploring the culinary landscape of Canada since the year 2000, where he enrolled in Winnipeg’s own Red River College Culinary Program. Diving into what would eventually become the canvas for the balanced creations Mike comes up with to this day, he began rotating through kitchens of various structures and styles.
After his education, Mike began as First Cook at The Fairmont Banff Springs and quickly set the pace for his career. Moving on to run large operations as Sous Chef for the MTS Centre, and eventually gaining a Head Chef position at previous North Kildonan local fare favorite 925 Bistro.
As the Bistro changed hands he was an easy choice to keep on as Head Chef at the new Rae’s Bistro + Lounge. With the network of Winnipeg’s culinary scene behind him, and a well nurtured garden of creativity, Mike has created a daily rotating menu that features his intense understanding of balancing and highlighting flavours. Frequently offering course dinners, and foods paired with Mike’s second passion, craft beer, his Menus at Rae’s Bistro never disappoint and showcase what Winnipeg has to offer.
