chef, and is responsible for all kitchen operations of the dining room and
banquet halls.
Rosen has more than 30 years of culinary-industry experience
throughout the United States in exclusive restaurants, conference centers,
hotels and country clubs. He also managed the food and beverage operations
at the corporate sponsor village during the 1996 Summer Olympic Games.

of the most enjoyable dining experiences in Charlotte.
“We are an excellent facility that makes great food,” explained
Rosen. “To be able to tie in the experience of sports and NASCAR with fine
dining is a unique opportunity. I enjoy working here at The Speedway Club
and it has been a tremendous step in my career.”
