Brought up by my mother\, I always took part in cooking meals at ho me from cleaning sardines and other fish to making salt cod cakes. After l iving in Canada for a few years I returned to Portugal in 1994 to open my first restaurant - a small\, 40-seat space serving mainly seafood brought in by the fishermen or harvested on the coast. This is where I really lear ned to cook and my teachers were the locals and fishermen themselves. By 2 001\, I was ready to step into the shoes of a chef and truly make the kitc hen my home. Acquiring as much experience as I could and in 2007 I moved b ack to Canada to open SABOR Restaurant with my childhood best friend\, Chr istian Mena. For a decade\, SABOR has been based on a menu focused on sust ainable seafood with Portuguese and Spanish flavours. We have become the t op seafood restaurant in Alberta and have added a raw bar to our offering and expanded our business to include a Spanish-style tapas restaurant conc ept BODEGA Wine and Tapas Bar (three locations and growing!) which also ha s an extensive seafood offering.\n\nRyan Hotchkiss\, Bündok\n\nRyan Hotch kiss grew up in the Edmonton in an area where food was always a main focus of daily events.

From dishwashing in Whistler\, BC\, to working the line of many venerable Edmonton restaurants\, he opened Bundok in 201 7. Bundok has been lucky enough to be welcomed with open arms by the Edmon ton food scene and he could not be more thankful. Ryan and his family incl uding wonderful wife Rosie\, 3-year-old Seve and new addition Enzo\, hope to continue to serve Edmonton for years.\n\nKelsey Johnson\, Cafe Linnea\n \nA passion for food has been a constant thread throughout the life of Che f Kelsey Johnson.  After a brief detour in the film industry she found he rself 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 s kills 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 coll aboration to open Cafe Linnea where Kelsey has been able to combine her pa ssion for butchery\, gardening\, baking and cooking.\n\nStephanie Greensla de\, Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge\n\nStephanie completed her training in bot h Culinary Arts &\; Pastry Arts at the Culinary Institute of Canada.
