The purpose of the Healthy Chef Competition is to promote healthy eating while raising money for the Mix it Up! campaign, Canadian Cancer Society and the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

The Art Institute of Vancouver
Copper Chimney
Dynasty Seafood
Grand Dynasty Seafood
The Hyatt Regency Vancouver
Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts
Prestons
River Rock Casino Resort
Tivoli’s Restaurant
