Chefs' Table Society of British Columbia – Your society of BC Chefs. Belong.

The Chefs' Table Society of British Columbia is a chef-administered, province-wide collaborative dedicated to creating a foundation for the exchange of information between culinary professionals.

We believe that through dialogue, passion, and fun, we can sustain a nurturing environment for our culinary students and collaborative partnerships with local suppliers, producers and supporters within British Columbia. This translates to:

Fostering camaraderie among hospitality professionals

Supporting local producers

Protecting our food security

Creating a positive legacy for our young chefs and hospitality colleagues

Are you an independent restaurant group with 1 or 2 locations (up to 99 staff members) that is looking for new ways to engage with your staff, increase retention and enhance your workplace culture?

Assessment Tool

“Like the process for which it’s named, Mise-en-Place is dedicated to preparing all the components of a healthy, sustainable future for our profession in our rapidly-changing world.
