Support Olympic Athletes While Sampling Canada’s To Chef’s Dishes at the Canadian Culinary Championships<\/b><\/h2>\n

We’ve booked our flights and have sent the interview questions to the chefs competing to get a bit of background information on who is competing at this year’s Canadian Culinary Championships held in Kelowna of February 2 & 3, 2018. Our British Columbia representative is once again, Chef Alex Chen; we sampled his dish at the BC level in November and were extremely impressed. I’ll be sure to get lots of photos of our local team from Boulevard Restaurant in Vancouver. The press release describes the two-day event best thanks to Christina\u00a0Ferreira, Media Relations Manager for the CCC.<\/p>\n

2017 Chef Champions: Gold Jinhee Lee, Silver Joe Thottungal, Bronze Eric Hanson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Canadian Culinary Championships involves three intense competitions for the chefs over two days.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Competition I: Mystery Wine Pairing:<\/u> Chefs are given a mystery bottle of wine and are challenged to create a dish with local ingredients that best complement the mysterious vintage, in a set amount of time and with a set budget. Guests will have the pleasure of sampling these creations on the opening night of the competition, in a stand-up cocktail reception format. During the event, guests will taste the mystery wine and play \u2018judge\u2019 as they vote on the \u2018People\u2019s Choice Award\u2019 for the best food-and-wine pairing. In addition, five \u2018Gold Medal Pints\u2019 finalists (selected from 50 craft beers from across Canada) will be featured and judged live by a panel of judges, and the bronze-, silver- and gold-medal-winning beers will be announced! A silent auction of rare wines and other experiences will also be featured.<\/p>\n

\"chef<\/a><\/p>\n

Competition II: The Black Box<\/u>: One of the most exciting parts of the competition! Chefs will be given a black box containing seven diverse ingredients and must use them all to produce and plate a spectacular dish for the national judges. All in one very short hour! Guests won\u2019t get much closer to watching an Iron Chef type competition than this. You are in the kitchen where all the action is! There is a mini market at the Okanagan College that features local products and the Okanagan Culinary Department creates a fantastic spread of food during the competition! NOTE<\/strong><\/em>: this event is ONLY open to guests who purchase 3-Event packages. <\/em><\/p>\n

\"img<\/a><\/p>\n

The Grand Finale:<\/u> On the final night of competition, anything goes. Chefs create their best dish for guests to sample, paired with a Canadian wine, spirit or beer from their regional beverage partner. By evening\u2019s end, Canada\u2019s Champion Chef of 2018 will be crowned and a victory celebration will be staged which will feature Olympic Gold Medalist in Ski Cross, Ashleigh McIvor as MC, and iconic Canadian rockers 54-40 led by chief songwriter, Neil Osborne! They will perform during the show and will finish the night off with an intimate live performance performing such classics as Ocean Pearl, I Go Blind and Miss You.<\/p>\n
