Foodies will be rejoicing: Lake Conroe’s new La Torretta Del Lago Resort & Spa has reached an agreement with one of the world’s most acclaimed chefs and restaurateurs to create a signature, fine-dining restaurant on the grounds of the Lake Conroe retreat.
Chef Albert Roux (with his brother named the most influential chefs in the United Kingdom) will create Chez Roux as the premiere dining venue among the more than 10 restaurants and cafes that will operate at the Lake Conroe resort. Roux’s London restaurant became the first ever in the United Kingdom to hold three stars by the Michelin Guide.
Chez Roux will be a free-standing facility located on the lake shore; construction will begin soon. The chef promises a contemporary French menu with heavy emphasis on local and fresh products to give it a hint of Texas flavor. The restaurant plans to open by year’s end.
