“It gives me a chance to connect with people and share my passion, without the walls of a restaurant kitchen. With a smaller group, I can really express myself through food and create moments that couldn’t happen anywhere else.”

BACKGROUND

Chris trained in kitchens across Canada before leading Calgary’s FARM and The Ranche, two of the city’s top farm-to-table restaurants before competing on Top Chef Canada Season 3. In 2014 he opened Krafty Kitchen + Bar in downtown Kelowna. Private dining lets him focus on what he cares about most: local ingredients and food that brings people together.

“The food was delicious, creative, and visually appealing. Chris worked with us to create the perfect menu and evening. The service was exceptional, and the kitchen was spotless when he left. I’d highly recommend Chris for a private event.”

“I hired Chris for a birthday dinner and could not have been more pleased. He was quick to answer questions and tweak the menu, used high quality, fresh, in-season ingredients, and his plating was amazing. My kitchen was as clean when he left as when he arrived.”
