- CHICAGO, IL, August 30, 2007 -- Myk Banas, Executive Chef at the 1,196-room Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile recently received the 2006 Marriott International Award of Culinary Excellence (ACE). It is through his commitment, dedication and creativity that Chef Myk Banas received the highest degree of recognition by Marriott International.
Banas, head Chef of Ventoso, the hotel's Chicago restaurant, began his Marriott culinary career in 1994 at the Hickory Ridge Conference Center following his training at Joliet Junior College. A native of Chicago, he joined the Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile last April and since that time, he created a unique venue to display the diverse array of tantalizing culinary options available. His very own Chef Myk's Office Slideshow is an exclusive presentation designed for prospective clients while dining alongside the Chef. He brings to the screen and to life extraordinary examples of culinary creations that were customized to suit each client's respective needs.
