Every August, ticket holders gather in Vancouver for a spectacular meal focused on beautiful B.C. wild salmon. However, due to COVID-19 restrictions, this year's Wild Salmon Celebration has morphed into a province-wide multi-day event, giving salmon fans and B.C. diners several chances to support local restaurants and honour our most iconic seafood.
The fourth annual Wild Salmon Celebration is hosted by the Chefs' Table Society of BC and the BC Salmon Marketing Council, and will take place Friday, August 21 through Sunday, August 23. The event will feature 10 chefs and restaurants in communities across B.C.
In its new format, diners will be able to order special Wild Salmon Celebration dishes during the three-day period. Each dish will make B.C. wild salmon the star, and the restaurants will set the price.
Some of the participating chefs and restaurants include:
- Angus An, Robert Belcham & Hamid Salimian, Popina Canteen (Vancouver)
- Ned Bell & Stacy Johnston, Naramata Inn (Naramata)
- Bernard Casavant, O’Rourke Peak Cellars (Kelowna)
- Welbert Choi, Forage (Vancouver)
- Chris Klassen, The Courtney Room (Victoria)
- Antonio Martin, Haven Ktichen & Bar (Langley)
- Malindi Taylor, Fanny Bay Oysters (Vancouver)
Additional participating chefs and venues will be confirmed as the event approaches.
