MARKET
Calgary
Born and raised in Victoria, B.C., David Bohati started his culinary career at a very young age washing dishes and eventually starting cooking at Pescatores, a restaurant in the heart of downtown Victoria. David had the bug for cooking and quickly climbed the ladder of the West Coast culinary world, learning from renowned chefs along the way.
Connections brought him to Calgary where he was offered a position at RUSH Restaurant and became Executive Chef after just two years. Chef Bohati and owner of MARKET; Vanessa, crossed paths throughout the years in Calgary’s culinary scene. Vanessa saw great potential in Chef Bohati and knew that he was the perfect Chef to bring her vision of MARKET to life.
Since opening in February of 2013 Chef Bohati has raised local and national attention for his work at MARKET. Helping make MARKET #1 Best New Restaurant in Calgary 2013 by claimed food critic John Gilchrist from CBC, was Nominated for Best New Restaurant Canada in 2013 by enRoute Magazine (Top 35 in Canada), and named #47 on the Top 50 Best Restaurant in Canada list 2014 by Vacay Canada. Most recently Chef Bohati’s greatest accomplishment came when he placed Gold in the 2014 Gold Medal Plates. He will be competing in February 2015 for Gold against all of Canada.
