What's the one cookbook a chef never stops going back to?

Executive Chef Jasper of L'Abbatoir stopped by The Commons recently for an episode of the Mise-en-Place Podcast, and checked out our library shelves for his favourite - the iconic French Laundry by Thomas Keller.

The best part is that you don't have to take his word for it. The French Laundry and many other chef favourites are waiting on the shelves at The Commons. Come browse, pull one down, and see what has chefs hooked!

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a day to listen, reflect, and honour Survivors, their families, and the children who never came home.

In 2022, the Indigenous chefs pictured here led the first cultural dinner at COOKSCAMP. Sharing their food, stories, and teachings with our community was a gift, and we remain honoured to have learned from them. Thank you for your generosity, your leadership, and for trusting us with a seat at your table.

For our industry, reconciliation means more than acknowledgement. It means showing up, learning, building relationships that last, and making room for Indigenous voices and leadership in our kitchens, on our boards, and at our events. We’re committed to continuing that work.

Every Child Matters.

Thank you for another incredible False Creek Crab Fest! 🦀🙌

Rain and all, you showed up to celebrate one of BC’s greatest summer traditions with us.

Every year, gathering with our friends at BC Dungeness Crab to showcase our incredible BC Dungeness crab reminds us why we love what we do. It’s about more than great seafood—it’s about the fishers, chefs, producers, volunteers, and community that make our local food system so special.

To everyone who braved the weather, cracked some crab, and supported local, thank you for making this year’s festival another one to remember 🙌🏻
