The 15th annual Food Day Canada is coming up on August 4th, and this year, it is extra special. A group of Canadian Relais & Chateaux chefs will collaborate on a cross-country tasting menu to celebrate this anniversary at top iconic properties from east to west.
The participating chefs include Warren Barr of the Wickaninnish Inn, B.C. (pictured below with Food Day Canada founder, Anita Stewart); Francis Wolf of Manoir Hovey, QC; Jason Bangerter of Langdon Hall, ON; and Lukas Gurtner of Sonora Resort, B.C. Each of the chefs participating in this project has been awarded for their talent and received Food Day Canada Gold awards in the past.
