WELCOME TO THE VISA INFINITE DINING SERIES, SUMMER 2023
Summer is the season of bright, engaging flavours and lighthearted social events, even better when enjoyed with friends in a garden or vineyard. We hope you enjoy these exclusive experiences cooked up just for you.

ABOUT THIS VISA INFINITE DINING SERIES IN-PERSON EXPERIENCE

Neil Taylor and Frank Pabst are two of British Columbia’s most revered chefs but, these days, Chef Taylor is cooking up his Mediterranean-influenced fare amid the bountiful fields and vineyards of the Okanagan Valley. He leads the kitchen at Home Block, the lofty, contemporary restaurant at CedarCreek Estate Winery, with sweeping views across the vines to Okanagan Lake. For this unforgettable meal held in CedarCreek’s covered Pavilion, he invites the Executive Chef of Vancouver’s Blue Water Cafe for a collaboration of flavours farmed, fished, and foraged nearby. Together they will showcase what they do best; sumptuous seafood, locally-sourced meats and vegetables with a Mediterranean flair, all paired with winemaker Taylor Whelan’s organically farmed wines, which earned CedarCreek the prestigious WineAlign 2022 Canadian Winery of the Year title.

ABOUT CEDARCREEK ESTATE WINERY
Located on Kelowna’s East Slopes, CedarCreek is one of BC’s most established wineries and one of its most forward-looking. WineAlign’s 2022 Winery of the Year was founded in 1987, making it one of the province’s original eight estate wineries. Since then, its vineyards have been transformed into fully organic, and a beautiful new facility has been built to house the tasting rooms and Home Block Restaurant. Talented winemaker Taylor Whelan is crafting award-winning, cool-climate wines of exceptional elegance, which are the pure expression of the Okanagan.

ABOUT NEIL TAYLOR
Originally from the UK, Chef Neil Taylor worked at London’s famous River Café and throughout Australia before arriving in Vancouver to open Cibo Trattoria, which enRoute magazine named Canada’s Best New Restaurant of 2008. In 2012 he opened his first restaurant, España, a Spanish tapas and wine bar, which opened to rave reviews. In 2018 he brought his Mediterranean-influenced cuisine to Kelowna and became Executive Chef of the newly opened Home Block at CedarCreek Estate Winery. With a wine-first philosophy, Chef Taylor draws inspiration for his menu from the wine, creating rustic, memorable dishes. Under his leadership, it was voted Restaurant of the Year in 2022 by Travel & Hospitality Awards.

ABOUT FRANK PABST
Frank Pabst is one of Canada’s most highly regarded chefs and a pioneer in sustainable seafood. He has cooked in Michelin-starred restaurants throughout Germany and France, including La Becasse (Aachen), the Hotel Negresco (Cannes), and Restaurant de Bacon (Antibes) where he fell in love with Mediterranean cuisine and techniques. Since 2003, he has been Executive Chef of the Toptable Group’s multi-award-winning seafood-forward Blue Water Cafe, considered one of North America’s finest seafood restaurants.
