Background:
The Food Studio is a multi-faceted facility that offers a commercial kitchen, meeting and dining space and a warm, European environment. It offers public and private cooking classes and has become an event space that is limited only by ones imagination.
The Food Studio was incorporated in July 2006. Programming began with a “Cooking Camp for Kids”, which has become our only regular summer programming. After the official opening in September, the Studio has offered cooking and baking classes, guest chef dining events and has hosted many private functions.
A recent expansion to our programs and services now offers the public full service catering under the capable direction of McEcker Food Productions, our on-site chefs.
Our facility is fully licensed and can accommodate up to 50 people in a variety of set ups: meetings and presentations, receptions, formal and informal classes, and sit down dinners.
Our vision is to foster the natural passion people have for food and their hunger for knowledge about all things related to food.
Our Mission:
- to offer the public accurate and professionally-led classes on food-related topics;
- to provide a wholesome and warm atmosphere where people feel at home;
- to highlight locally-developed and produced food products.
Our main streams of activity include:
- educational programming;
- local product exposure and product development;
- on and off-site catering;
- space rental for commercial and private video productions, television shows and private functions.
Community Involvement:
We are members of the Manitoba Food Producers Association (MFPA) , Assiniboine Chamber of Commerce and support several local charities in the health care industry.
