With award season on our heels, there is no better time for us to tell you about Les Lauriers de la Gastonomie Quebecoise happening in Spring 2018. It’s essentially the Oscars of the Quebec food scene!
Les Lauriers’ first edition takes place in the new year with the goal of highlighting Quebec’s gastronomy and honouring those who work in the industry. We all know Montreal, in particular, has a bomb.com food scene. It’s crazy no one’s thought of this before. This recognition gala will be awarding not only chefs but everyone who is an integral part of the food and beverage industry, like sommeliers, mixologists, food producers, service, and even creative business initiatives! The goal is truly to show appreciation for the people who make the food scene in Quebec what it is. The event’s first ambassador is none other than our own Ricardo L’Arrivée, who agrees that this initiative is long overdue and truly believes that artists and contributors of the industry should be recognized for their indispensable work.
