Lightbulb Happy Canada Day!
First off, happy Canada day to all the Canadians on this board. Secondly, did anybody catch the new series on FOOD Network Canada called "COOK LIKE A CHEF"? It's a really great show, they showcase young canadian chefs and they show basic as well as advanced techniques. It shows on Monday nights at 7:30 ET time for those wondering.

Anneke, it was Ned Bell, he works at the Niagara Peninsula Restaurant. Oh, by the way, the show is everyday at 7:30 pm, watchin it right now. It's about makin' sauces and demi glace. I think I've found my fav show on the Food network, this show is pretty informative
oh and Anekke, Ned Bell was once a featured chef on The great Canadian food show where him and Carlos Rota found someone at a brocery sotre in TO and offered to cook supper for them a la "door knock dinners"

Thanks for the birthday wishes. I didn't mean to take away from Canada, though. I haven't been there in WAY too long. Every time I go, it rains, which comforts my Oregonian heart. (Can you tell I"ve only been to western Canada)... so to the Canadians around, which area of Canada has the best cuisine and why?

BTW, chocolate fondue is the BEST birthday cake.

Shimmer,

I will preach for my own parish and say Montreal. Why? If French cuisine ranks amongst the best in the world, you do find it in Montreal!

Montreal for it's diversity. Quebec City is a great food place as well.

I haven't been in Toronto for so long (sigh)!

I've heard good things about Vancouver! Who can fill us in?

I agree, Montreal is the best. Quebec City is pretty close though...
Here in Toronto, there is good food but it's expensive and not as widespread as in Mtl....

Happy Belated B-day Shimmer!
I have been cooking in Alberta for almost 3 yrs now and must say that it's pretty much Beef and Lamb! Not too exciting, Our new Italian Kitchen just opened and I am working there now...The menu is great!! I am happy to say though, that I have been able to bring some of my French roots with me (grew up east of Montreal) We now feature buffets with REAL French Canadian Tourtiere! Just like Mom used to make. I would agree that Montreal and Quebec City has the best food. It's what I grew up on and it's why I became a Chef. Can't wait to go back!
