CHEF FOR A DAY – FALL & WINTER DATES RELEASED – PLUS NEW LOWER PRICE!

September 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

Have you ever wondered what the life of a chef is like? Here’s your chance – and now at a new lower price!

With Edible BC’s popular Chef for a Day program you can enjoy a day learning the secrets and tricks of the trade from one of Vancouver’s top chef talents. Brian Fowke is the former Chef/Owner of Vancouver lauded Rare and Metro Restaurants, and is now working his culinary magic at Mon Bella Bistoria.

You will start out by meeting Chef Fowke at Granville Island Public Market, the heart of our culinary city, where you will plan your seasonal, local menu together as a group (maximum of 8 people per class). You will learn the ins and outs of buying market fresh – chef style – and pick up everything you need for the day’s menu.

Once the ingredients have been gathered, you’ll head to nearby Mon Bella Bistoria for an interactive cooking lesson in a professional working kitchen. Chef Fowke will lead you and the group in the preparation of a multicourse meal together, using the ingredients you’ve just purchased at the market. After the meal has been prepared, you will sit down to enjoy the meal together as a group – family style – and discuss what you learned while enjoying a couple of glasses of fantastic BC wine.
