Chef Irwin MacKinnon From Papa Joe’s PEI<\/h3>\n

This weekend eleven of Canada’s top chefs will head to Kelowna to compete in the Canadian Culinary Championships. We\u2019re learning a little bit about them before they compete and here’s our answers from PEI\/New Brunswick’s representing chef, Chef Irwin MacKinnon from Papa Joe’s.<\/p>\n

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

Tell us a little bit about your restaurant. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Papa Joe\u2019s is one of if not the busiest restaurants in Charlottetown. We serve a very eclectic style menu with Mediterranean, Indian, Classical and comfort foods with flare in a casual but upscale atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Where do you eat in your city? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I like Sim\u2019s Corner or Pilot House during the winter months and try as many seasonal spots as possible through the summer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

What would be your ideal food day<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

I love to eat as much as I do cooking, ideal for me would be a roving feast stopping a many spots, trying some apps and good wine then moving on to another.<\/p>\n

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

What ingredient do you always have on hand? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Mustard, Grainy, Dijon or flavoured but gotta have mustard<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your go-to recipe when you\u2019re eating at home?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love to Bar B Q when I am at home, usually Island beef.<\/p>\n

What cookbook are you most interested in lately? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I must admit, I never look at many cookbooks, but ironically would like to publish one!!<\/p>\n

Any hints on what dish you will be preparing for the Culinary Championships? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I am bringing the East Coast with me!<\/p>\n

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

What beverage are you pairing with? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I am using an American IPA called Go Devil, made here in Charlottetown by UpStreet Craft Brewery.<\/p>\n

Who is coming with you? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I have two of my staff and two owners coming to Kelowna, as well I have a couple of friends coming in from Alberta.<\/p>\n

What, outside the competition itself, are you looking forward to experiencing in Kelowna?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am looking forward to enjoying local West coast inspired food and of course Okanagan wine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
