A  Tribute  To. . . 


Chef Robert Barker, 

a graduate of the Delgado Culinary Arts Apprenticeship Program, died at the very early age of 44. 


He had a successful career working for notable chefs such as Wolfgang Puck and Emeril Lagasse and has worked with cookbook author Kit Wohl.  Eventually he opened his own restaurant, Demi Epicurious in Austin, Tx. Chef Barker died April 2, 2011 at his home in New Orleans.  

 

"Robert was a passionate, talented cook and we will all miss him.  The only thing I can think is that God probably needed a new chef who could not only make great pizza and wonderful fish dishes but also train the chefs in heaven" expressed Wolfgang Puck.
