Chefs Supporting Local producers
Another food event discovered by our own intrepid household chef. We were lucky enough to attend this “sold out” food tasting, fund raising event that included not only delicious local food but also a wonderful historic venue near the Fisgard Lighthouse on Vancouver Island
The event is sponsored by ICCBC whose web site http://www.iccbc.ca/ define themselves as follows:
“The Island Chefs Collaborative (icc) are a liked-minded community of chefs and food and beverage professionals with a common interest in regional food security, the preservation of farmland and the development of local food system.”
Guide to sailors and good food
The lighthouse is a National Historic Site is described on http://www.fisgardlighthouse.com/ :
“Built by the British in 1860, when Vancouver Island was not yet part of Canada, Fisgard’s red brick house and white tower has stood faithfully at the entrance to Esquimalt harbour.”
Great food and great location. Will update with more pictures shortly.
