Building a stronger, more sustainable hospitality industry is the driving force behind everything that Chef’s Table Society does.
Cooks Camp is not only an expression of this initiative, but a celebration of the value of unity. The Chef’s Favourite team were thrilled to journey out to the beautiful property of North Arm Farm to get our first ever taste of Cooks Camp, and the impact was undeniable. We couldn’t be any prouder of the industry we live and breathe, and it’s projects like this that bring it all into perspective.
Can’t wait for Cooks Camp 2027!

You always ask our Favourites so here’s what we’re eating RIGHT NOW!

you have to be exceptional to stay in business for 40 years in Vancouver and Sawasdee Thai Restaurant is just that!

Peya Yvr blends flavourful, delicious food with a sexy and well designed room.

Although Ong Ba Vietnamese Eatery existed on Denman St for the past decade, they have just recently moved to Coquitlam. Same incredible flavors with an exponentially bigger location. No more waiting in line!

Always cool, always delicious. Experience their back alley patio for only a while longer or head indoors for the delicious CHUPITO experience!

The new kid on the block and Amber Restaurant came out punching. We’ve been for breakfast, happy hour and dinner!

The rooftop popup “Dude, where’s my bar?” Is only open a few more weeks. Hopefully just in time for their Keefer st. bar to officially open Bar Supernova!

C MARKET COFFEE takes both pastries and coffee to the next level.

Great share plates Giusti Restaurant Vancouver too but that 16 layer lasagna is epic.

Chez nous – French Bakery & Coffee | Vancouver opened last year and quickly became a Favourite! Exceptional pastries and coffee.

Worth the hype! Chef Ejner tested hundreds of different pizza doughs before landing on this perfect NYC style base and toppings combo!

If you love seafood, this spot is for you! Maria Celeste | Comida Portuguesa feels both modern and traditional in the best way.

No Nê Kitchen and Bar -Authentic Vietnamese Cuisine has done a wonderful job of creating a welcoming environment to showcase their delicious & flavourful food!

The perfect quick stop for any pizza or sandwich lover! Mortadella won our pizza competition last March and there was no disputing it!

They call their restaurant “rebellious Vietnamese” and Good Thief knocks the rebellion out of the park every time! Their cocktails and food are very special and unique!

RICO Peruvian Chicken is only available for takeout but it might be one of the best takeout options this city has seen!

Love, love, love DON’T ARGUE SLICE SHOP
