Our team of Chefs & Culinary Artists...
The Chamber is privileged to have James Walt and Grant Cousar on board leading a group of talented culinary artists.
Showcasing the best of local produce, the dinner will be one of the most sought after events of the summer. And of course we've included some of the best of BC wines to compliment the menu!
James Walt
Executive Chef: Araxi's Restaurant Whistler
Lead Chef: Slow Food Dinner Event
'The European market culture has inspired me to cook even more locally and seasonally,' he says. 'There, if it's not local and in season, it's simply not served. Everything is sold at its prime so you're able to shop daily and be creative and spontaneous.' Now living in the heart of Pemberton's farming community, Chef makes regular farm visits where he personally selects the freshest local ingredients to feature on Araxi's menu.
Grant Cousar
Owner: Whistler Cooks Catering Cuisine
Director: Slow Food Dinner Event
During his 25 year career Grant trained as a chef primarily in French classical cuisine at Dubrulle Culinary School and has worked at many of BC's finest restaurants. Grant's culinary direction has always been towards locally harvested foods.
Remember tickets are limited to just 80 seats. Book now!
