Bash 2016: London’s Calling With It’s English Cuisine!

By on May 31, 2016

Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and the ever so dapper James Bond. Now what do they all have in common? All pleasing to the eye…Yes, but they also call London home. And London happens to be this years theme to Ottawa’s hottest summer party, BASH!

Bash, in support of the Snowsuit Fund, will be hosting again another sold-out one a kind soirée! I had the pleasure of attending last year’s event and it was literally off the charts. No expenses were spared when it came to theatrics, entertainment and décor.

This year’s summer event is paying tribute to the royal treatment in every sense of the word. London Calls is the theme for this year’s chic evening. I have been told that anything and everything that screams and epitomizes British sophistication will be integrated in one facet or another at this year’s event.

And when I say anything and everything, I am talking about being awe struck as soon as you enter the Horticulture building, where the British extravaganza will be taking place, and from there the skies the limit!

As a VIP guest, you’re immediately spoiled with local food vendors serving a variety of London inspired fare and, of course, an open bar. As you move past the entrance, you uncover a secret London Underground party. You see a Beatles VIP cover band, three very famous London spies hosting table service, a London barber shop, PIMMS Bar and an important address from the Queen regarding the late night service of macarons and scones.

Now BASH 2016 London Calls wouldn’t be complete without savouring some English culinary delights, and you know, I have the culinary scoop for you.

I am please to say that several restaurants have teamed up and showed their support for the Snowsuit Fund. So here’s some teasers for you and your tummy to enjoy!

Friday night, I had the privilege of attending the 2024 Canadian Culinary Championships - Mystery Wine Challenge - People's Choice Award🥇🥇@greatkitchenparty
.
Congratulations to all the chefs involved in this intense competition. The chefs needed to create a dish to pair with the mystery wine. Each chef was given a tricky budget of $550 for the 250 guests. I was witnessing creativity at its best!!😋
.
The winning dish🥇 (centered in the middle of the photo) was created by JP Dublado: Red Deer Resort and Casino, Red Deer AB
Dish: beet & soy cured albacore tuna - ponzu gel - tomato water - puffed wild rice - beet green oil
.
Amazing talent from all the chefs as they paired with the mystery wine (a 2021 Lailey Vineyard Zweigelt)🍷🍷

I am very proud to share my culinary "observer" perspective regarding @lecordonbleuottawa culinary workshops in the latest issue of @luxeottawamagazine 😊
.
Visiting my alma mater and watching the culinary workshop from a different lens reinforced the rationale as to why I pursued my culinary education…the pleasure of savouring the fruits of your labour. 😋
.
It is this journey that ignited my passion for cooking, helped hone my skills, and introduced me to a world of flavours and techniques that continue to inspire me to this day. And perhaps it will inspire you as well!👨‍🍳👩🏼‍🍳

Check out the article and the new culinary workshops being offered. Enjoy the adventure!!😊🤗

Where's my rubber ducky 🐤😉?! 
.
A year ago this week, I was enjoying some bath time while in @discoverdominica 🏖🏝😍
.
Dominica's lush scenery is extraordinary, and I'm grateful to have been invited to visit their beautiful island😊😊
.
Visiting Wotten Waven Sulphur Springs was perfect to relax and rid of some unwanted stress. And the outdoor bath surrounded by all that green landscape was simply the BEST! An unforgettable experience! 🤩
.
Dominica's adventure activities - diving, snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, swimming - are just some of the many ways to enjoy this tropical island.🤿🙂
.
Put Dominica on your travel list. You'll love it!!❤️❤️
