Our BC wines are fast becoming some of the top rated wines in the world, with over 80 wineries and mederies spread far and wide across this beautiful province. Fruit is also grown in abundance, with cherries, and apples, pears and kiwi's growing throught the interior and the islands.

Vancouver is one of the most ethnically diverse cities in Canada and just about any kind of food you can find in the world can be found here. A broad range of restaurants and bars offer superb quisine with many award winning establishments scattered in and around the city. The food culture has grown and is building up to a world showpiece staged crescendo that is the 2010 olympic games. The surrounding communities help to support this plethera of fine local food outlets, stretching up towards the sunshine coast and out into the lower mainland, you will not be hard pushed to find a place to relax and enjoy what the most popular city in the world has to offer.

Victoria the provincial capital is a popular destination for food and wine experiences and boasts a wide and varied range of restaurants. There is a food experience awaiting every size of budget from Lobster to Hot-Dogs and Oysters to French Fries. Home of 2 notable culinery schools the island can boast a host of chefs that are truly masters of their trade. Seafood restaurants are of course plentiful and there is even a floating fish and chips shop located at fishermans wharf. The ferries from Washington state bring tourists year round, once upon a time this was to visit the famous legistlature buildings, or to take a scenic horse and carriage ride through the tree line avenues of James Bay and beyond. Since Victoria started to become an international stopping point for many cruise ships the visitors needs grew. There are as many people visiting the city to sample the fine cuisine and locally brewed wines and beers as there are people visiting the island to stop off at Butchart Gardens these days.

Vancouver Island is a west coast epicurean centre, thanks to the cornucopia of fresh, local produce, seafood, specialty food producers, wineries and micro-brewed ales found here. World-class chefs who work in close partnership with growers, producers and foragers to create some of North America's most innovative and mouthwatering cuisine.
