It’s been brought to my attention about a fundraiser to support Canadian Chef Ryan Stone for his participation in Bocuse d’Or 2011. Chef Stone is currently Executive Chef at the West Coast Fishing Club on Haida Gwaii. He will be representing Canada on world stage, showing the culinary talent our country has to offer.

About Bocuse d’Or

The Bocuse d’Or World Cuisine contest is the most rigorous international culinary competition held every two years in Lyon, France. Twenty-four countries are selected to compete and each country’s team is comprised of one chef and one commis assistant. Each team is provided five and a half hours to create two elaborate platter presentations, one centred around seafood and one on meat, each accompanied by three original garnishes. The platters are presented before 24 judges, each of whom is among the most esteemed chef in his/her own country.
