  • Vancouver World Chef Exchange brings international flavours to Dine Out Vancouver
Take your taste buds abroad at Dine Out Vancouver Festival’s most anticipated culinary event. The third annual Vancouver World Chef Exchange, presented by Aeroplan, will bring award-winning chefs from global culinary hubs to Vancouver for a series of collaborative dinners, featuring flavours from Bangkok, Tokyo, Beijing, Nashville, and a trio of Canadian destinations: Calgary, Edmonton and Saskatoon.
 
During each event, the visiting and local chefs will join forces to produce an incredible multi-course dinner at the Vancouver chef’s restaurant, taking inspiration from their respective restaurants’ most popular dishes; their own cultural influences and favourite fare; and local and seasonal ingredients.
 
The spirit of the Vancouver World Chef Exchange is one of collaboration and community building: sharing ideas and experiences, as well as developing relationships between Vancouver and international chefs and the destinations they come from.
