With Brasserie B at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas and numerous other upscale dining establishments under his belt, Chef Flay is celebrated for his innovative approach to classic dishes and bold flavors.

Bobby Flay has been a strong partner to Sentient Jet since November 2016, when the partnership kicked off with special Card Owner access to VIP reservations.

Each year, Bobby also hosts a signature Derby Day breakfast for Sentient Jet Card Owners ahead of the Kentucky Derby race, complete with cocktails, a themed breakfast and racing picks. Bobby has also participated in other exclusive events, such as intimate Q&A discussions with Card Owners on his businesses, career, travel, etc.
