Registration is now open for the 2026 Chef to Chef Conference, taking place March 8–10 at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs. Presented by Club + Resort Chef, the event brings together culinary leaders from clubs and resorts across the country to tackle the challenges unique to member- and guest-driven dining.
Club culinarians often work in environments where expectations are high, teams are tight, and member preferences shape every decision. Those realities don’t always align with what’s covered at broader culinary events, which is why Chef to Chef has become the place chefs go to compare notes with peers who understand their world. The conversations are candid, practical, and rooted in real club operations.
For Club + Resort Business readers, that’s exactly why sending your culinary leader matters. The conference strengthens the amenity your members experience most often—dining—by giving chefs tools, insights, and a network they rarely have access to in their day-to-day work.
The 2026 agenda focuses on the elements that influence member satisfaction across every outlet:
- Leadership that keeps teams steady and engaged
- Menu identity that aligns with what members value
- Systems that support a seamless experience across the club
- Banquets and events that reinforce the club’s reputation
- Culture that drives consistency and communication
Every session is taught by practicing club and resort chefs who understand the dynamics of membership-driven operations. The ideas exchanged often lead to sharper systems, stronger teams, and more intentional dining experiences, changes that immediately impact the member journey.
