To celebrate, it welcomes back three of its star alumni for a series of spectacular dinners.<\/p>\n<p>As well as ranking among Canada&#8217;s top chefs, David Hawksworth, Rob Feenie and Ned Bell have something else in common: each walked in to Le Crocodile restaurant as a hopeful young cook, yet to make their mark. Decades later, each have developed his craft, gained critical and popular acclaim, and influenced culinary communities across the nation. Michel Jacob, Le Crocodile owner and chef, saw something in each of them. To have shaped the early years of three of Vancouver&#8217;s superstar chefs speaks to his ability to identify, inspire and foster talent and passion.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s meaningful to have played a role as mentor to chefs who have gone on to mentor others,&#8221; said Jacob. &#8220;I&#8217;m honoured that each of them will return to my kitchen for this celebration.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a fitting homecoming. Jacob celebrated two previous milestone anniversaries with dinners featuring his own mentor, Emile Jung from Au Crocodile in Strasbourg. He approached this milestone with a sense of reflection on what his three decades in Vancouver have contributed to the culinary community.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have watched this city&#8217;s restaurant industry grow up and I&#8217;ve been happy to be part of it. These dinners are a way of celebrating both the past and the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This five-course tasting menu is priced at $130 per person* and the dinners are sure to sell out quickly. Chef David Hawksworth of Hawksworth Restaurant begins the series on Tuesday, Nov. 4, followed by Chef Ned Bell of Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver and YEW seafood on Wednesday, Nov. 5.\u00a0 Chef Rob Feenie of Cactus Club Cafe plays the final role of guest chef on Thursday, Nov. 6. \u00a0To reserve tickets, please call the restaurant at 604.669.4298.\u00a0<em>*Tax and gratuity not included.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>About Le Crocodile:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Impeccable service with flair, never pretense or fanfare. Le\u00a0Crocodile blends traditional French cooking with innovative West coast style. Michel has cooked for and seen generation after generation of families pass through the doors of Le Crocodile. Thirty years later, with some of the original staff still here, Le Crocodile still remains in Vancouver as one of the city&#8217;s most acclaimed and visited restaurants.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chef Michel Jacob Teams up with Chefs David Hawksworth, Ned Bell and Rob Feenie for\u00a0Three Exciting Dinners on November 4, 5 and 6 Le Crocodile, Vancouver&#8217;s most cherished French restaurant, will mark its 30th anniversary this fall.
