REPOST • @hsccyeg CHEF SPOTLIGHT Scott Downey Owner/Chef, @thebutternuttree Scott Downey grew up in St. Albert and spent his summers visiting family in New Brunswick. The memory of the butternut tree in his grandmother’s backyard is a powerful symbol of the wonderful ingredients growing all over the Canadian landscape, waiting to be rediscovered. Chef Downey has cooked at Michelin-star restaurant Daniel in New York, the highly decorated Noma in Denmark, and Wildebeest in Vancouver. Today, we find Chef Downey back in the prairies running The Butternut Tree in the heart of Edmonton’s downtown core — a place that celebrates the art of gathering, in both fine company and ingredients. Scott & his team will be serving a dish featuring foraged Lichen prepared in a variety of ways. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Edmonton's top culinary talent will be at #HotChefsCoolbEats on April 25th at the Mosaic Centre!

REPOST • @hsccyeg CHEF SPOTLIGHT Nevin & Kara Fenske Owners, @drift_foodtruck Nevin & Kara have been operating their food truck, Drift, since the summer of 2011. Being one of the first trucks on the streets full time, they have helped to pave the way for the food truck industry in Edmonton over the last 7 years. They have also since partnered with a bowling alley, brewery, curling club, and baseball stadium to provide food for all their hungry patrons too!

REPOST • @hsccyeg CHEF SPOTLIGHT Kelsey Johnson Chef/Co-Owner, Cafe Linnea A passion for food has been a constant thread throughout the life of Chef Kelsey Johnson.  After a brief detour in the film, industry she found herself in her first kitchen at age 21 and was in charge of her own kitchen at Culina Highlands by age 23.  Over the next 7 years, she developed her skills at various restaurants in Edmonton, traveled through Sweden, spent a summer butchering at Acme Meats, and several years at Duchess Bakeshop to refine her pastry skills.  Her time at Duchess Bakeshop led to a collaboration to open Cafe Linnea where Kelsey has been able to combine her passion for butchery, gardening, baking and cooking. Kelsey and her team will be serving Beef Tartare with Nasturtium, Aioli, and Pickled Mustard Seeds. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Edmonton's top culinary talent will be at #HotChefsCoolbEats on April 25th at the Mosaic Centre!
