Alex & Bobby Haugen
Alex and Bobby Haugen are the friendly faces behind Rocky Mountain Raclette. They first met in the Vail Valley in 2014, and their bond has only grown stronger over the years, eventually leading to their marriage in Vail in September 2024. With extensive backgrounds in hospitality and food and beverage, Alex and Bobby have developed a well-rounded expertise in creating memorable experiences. They took the reins of Rocky Mountain Raclette in 2022, from a close friend who was moving cross-country, and they’ve been loving every minute of it since. Offering a one-of-a-kind dining experience with a Swiss flair, Rocky Mountain Raclette is dedicated to serving gourmet meats, irresistible cheeses, and fine wines, all crafted to make your dining experience truly unforgettable.
Rocky Mountain Raclette provides fully catered, gourmet Raclette dinners in private residences in the Vail Valley, Colorado & beyond! Diners grill fresh meats, seafood, and vegetables on granite topped Raclette grills at their dining table, while Swiss Raclette cheese is melted below, then scraped onto potatoes and artisan bread. The melted Raclette cheese and potatoes is then combined with the fresh beef tenderloin, elk, seafood, and vegetables, and served with a variety of dipping sauces to create your own flavor combinations. A charcuterie board is included to begin the experience, and a homemade baked dessert completes the meal. Raclette is a Swiss dish, meant for sharing ingredients and stories while relaxing around the dining table. Rocky Mountain Raclette is not only about the delicious cuisine and fully catered dining experience, but also the social aspect of spending time together with friends and family.
