A great event for a great cause!
We’re officially ONE MONTH away from Superior Chef! If you’ve been hearing about the event and wondering what it’s all about, here’s everything you need to know.
🍽️ What is Superior Chef?
Superior Chef is a brand new culinary competition bringing some of Thunder Bay’s talented chefs together for an unforgettable evening of food, fun and friendly competition. You’ll sample their creations and help vote for the first Superior Chef People’s Choice Award!
Who does Superior Chef support?
Proceeds from the evening will support George Jeffrey Children’s Foundation and Easter Seals Ontario, helping children, youth and families in Thunder Bay, Northwestern Ontario and across the province.
How can I buy tickets?
Tickets are available now at superiorchef.ca. General Admission and VIP tickets are available.
What’s included with VIP?
VIP guests get to start the evening early with an exclusive reception featuring appetizers, a specialty cocktail and the chance to mix and mingle with our celebrity emcee, comedian James Cunningham, before the main event begins.
Which chefs are participating?
We’ve brought together a lineup of top chefs from across Thunder Bay’s food scene, each ready to showcase their skills and bring something unique to the competition. Stay tuned to our page as we introduce the chefs who will be competing!
Who will determine the Superior Chef?
We’ve hand-picked a panel of five judges who know a great dish when they taste one! With discerning palates and an appreciation for great food, they’ll have the difficult job of tasting each chef’s creation and ultimately deciding who will be crowned Superior Chef.
Do guests get to vote?
Yes! Each ticket holder receives a ballot to cast their vote for the People’s Choice Award. Come hungry and be ready to choose your favourite!
