LUMIÈRE GALA
























Sept. 11, 2013 Brookstreet Hotel, 525 Legget Dr.

Tickets (2012 price): $150 

Launched in June 2003 to mark the opening of Brook-street Hotel, Lumière has become one of Ottawa’s best summer garden parties, raising money for local charities. Last September, more than 530 people raised $74,000 as they enjoyed superlative food served at stations prepared by Brookstreet executive chef Clifford Lyness and his chefs.

The evening ends with a spectacular fireworks show. Beneficiaries for the 11th edition are Wesley Clover Foundation and the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation. Tickets go on sale in July; details expected at the Brookstreet website.

**Food Tease’s thoughts: years ago I had the pleasure of working longside some of Ottawa’s better known chefs: Kurt Waldele, Frederic Filliodeau, Michael Blackie just to name a few. This event was stellar and very well organised for the guests. The price is a bit steep but it all goes to a good cause. I still have fond memories sipping Crystal champagne as the night sky was lite up with the beautiful firework display put on for the guests.

A couple of evenings ago, I had the pleasure and honour of being invited by my alma mater, @lecordonbleuottawa to witness Chef @antonyannick70 be awarded France`s L`Ordre du mérite agricole, the highest civilian honour from the embassy @franceaucanada 😃

This distinction recognizes the contributions of Chef Yannick to promote French culture in Canada and Ottawa specifically - through his work as a chef and instructor at Le Cordon Bleu Institute in Ottawa.

Special moments of the evening included Ambassador of France to Canada, Michel Miraillet sharing with guests the numerous accomplishments that Chef Yannick Anton has accomplished over the years. Simply remarkable!!👏👏
A very touching and inspiring moment came when Chef Yannick Anton gave praise and gratitude to his mentors, who helped him attain his dream in the culinary industry. He also reminded the graduating class of chefs to always have a vision and to never let it go.👨‍🍳👩🏼‍🍳😍

And it wouldn`t be a celebration without some tasty treats that exude French flare! They even had chocolate graduation hats - very cute and apropo 🎓🎓

Bravo Chef!!😊
