Yes Chef!
Farmers' markets bring communities together, even more so when a large producer shows up to support the local market and meet its customers.
Valbella’s commitment to excellence, its European tradition and its simple love of fine food have done it again. They've snagged one of the Bow Valley's finest Swiss chefs to deliver gourmet creations with a farmers' market twist. Valbella stands out as one of Western Canada’s most recognized meat processors.
Founder Walter’s constant product innovation and keen market sense keep customers and top chefs awaiting new and tantalizing products, whether they be for a gourmet menu, or simply for a backyard BBQ party. Where else can you zip in for a Beef Wellington, Turducken or double smoked bacon? Soon these will be available at the market too.
We caught up with the next generation, his daughter Chantal, at their new Canmore Mountain Market Food Trailer. How do pork-belly kimchi or a bison rhubarb burger sound for your Thursday lunch? Come and get these and other creations at the market in downtown Canmore over your Thursday lunch hour. Everyone else is there anyway...
