About Chef Derek Dammann: Chef Dammann has his finger most assuredly on the pulse of Montreal dining. His previous restaurant, DNA, was a favourite of critics and diners alike. Maison Publique, which he opened just over a year ago in partnership with celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, is an ode to social dining- especially if “social” can be interpreted to mean “a packed house.” The atmosphere combines traditional pub charm with the rustic chic of a hunter’s cabin, complete with wall-mounted trophies. It all adds up to an irresistible charm-and a No. 6 ranking on enRoute magazine’s list of Canada’s Best New Restaurants 2013.
About Chef Lee Cooper: Lee Cooper brings more than 15 years of industry experience to the helm of L’Abattoir. In the past Lee has spent time training in some of British Columbia’s best kitchens as well as several Michelin-starred restaurants in the USA and the UK. He is excited to be leading a talented young kitchen brigade at L’Abattoir, crafting menus that reflect his favourite dishes and ingredients. Western Living has named Lee one of its top 40 Foodies Under 40, and the Vancouver Sun ranked him among their Top 10 up and coming chefs, saying his cuisine is “casual and refined with an ease in orchestrating flavours, textures,
presentation and technique.” EnRoute magazine says L’Abattoir is “the nucleus of modern Vancouver cuisine, the place to take the post-Olympic pulse of the city.”
About L’Abattoir: Located in the centre of Gastown between historic Gaoler’s Mews and Blood Alley, L’Abattoir is located in a 19th-century building that was the site of Vancouver’s first jail. The restaurant’s name pays homage to the neighbourhood’s colourful past. Chef Lee Cooper and General Manager Paul Grunberg are dedicated to highlighting the finer points of eating and drinking in an informal setting. French-influenced West Coast fare is paired with an eclectic wine program and Head Barman Shaun Layton’s innovative cocktail list to offer a truly unique dining experience.
