It was a pleasure to participate in (and host) the Ottawa regional all-star 20th Anniversary of Canadian Culinary Championship 🏆 at Raphaël Peruvian Cuisine!
It was an honour to have the incredibly talented and hardworking chefs - Ian Carswell, Yannick LaSalle, Jason Sawision and Joe Thottungal, and their formidable teams, alongside Lizardo Becerra, Hibett Antiporta, Ronal Perez and Noelia Cardenas - in our new kitchen. All chefs presented dishes that were outstanding works of art. Congratulations for showcasing what Peter Hum described as dishes that “wowed”!
Bravo to Yannick La Salle 🥇 Black Tartan 🥈 and Stofa Restaurant 🥉 we look forward to cheering on Team Ottawa in January!
Incredible seafood from Organic Ocean Seafood is showcased at our restaurant everyday, and we are so grateful for their support of our dish, highlighting Sablefish and Manila Clams.
Adorning the dish were herbs from Tulsi Farm / Ferme Tulsi Thank you for your support!
The idea for this dish was sparked after tasting Grange of Prince Edward Winery Aurelia 2023 Chardonnay, which offers minerality, nuttiness and zest to complement the dish. Thank you to the incomprable Marnie Williamson for serving wines with us for the evening of the competition!
Our entire team dedicated extra time and effort to make Monday night’s event possible. Muchisimas gracias to all of you!
Thank you to Lisa Pasin and the Canadian Culinary Championship 🏆 for your confidence in us hosting the event.
Our space is ready to welcome you, Ottawa!
