The night's dinner consisted of fresh ingredients from local crops, orchards, vineyards, seafood, and game farms as renowned chefs (four of whom competed on Top Chef Canada) made creations to embody their commitment to locally grown food and wine.

All the chefs used their culinary talents to showcase the province's seasonal ingredients for an intriguing multi-course dining experience. Each dish (delicious in its own way) was prepared to reflect the freshness and quality of locally sourced goods, paired with carefully chosen wines from the BCWI. Think "buy local".
