Asked Questions

What
role does the Red Rooster Café play in the
Jerome scene? |
A welcoming,
casual place where you can get an exceptional
homemade meal, enjoy the street scene, red
rocks, and good company.
Have a glass of wine or local brew. Or
just get a great cup of coffee and dessert
fresh from our oven.
We’re a Jerome staple and committed
to evolving.
Our walls are covered with artwork from
several local artists, so the café doubles as
a show room.
And, in case you’re interested, we
neighbor the Art Park and some of the most
unique shops in the region.

| Where does
the name "hummus" come from? |
| From the Arabic
word for "chickpea". A chickpea is
commonly referred to as a garbanzo bean in the
United States. Hummus is mainly comprised of
garbanzo beans, with a few other ingredients
like garlic and sesame seed paste. Although
recipes abound online, chef Kimberly Hollon
has perfected her own.

| Where does
The Red Rooster Café get its name
from? |
| The name of our
restaurant is shrouded in mystery.
Some claim
that the name stems from Rooster of the
Chinese Lunar Calendar, which is
characteristically sexy, tenacious, and overly
romantic, always in the spotlight, and has a
knack for entertaining.
Others allude
to the rooster in Shakespeare's Hamlet,
who crowed to awake the god of day.
Still others
insist that culture and cuisine cultivated
under the proud rooster on the
post-revolutionary flag of the First Republic
of France is the restaurant's true
inspiration.
