“today our discussion is all about the rapidly-growing Canadian wine industry and what its players are doing to make sure Canada’s great wines are recognized around the world.”
Joining me today is Ray Delucci of Line Cook Thoughts. Now living and working in Maryland, Ray is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, and he’s already got amazing experience in a number of roles in the culinary world at the age of 23. Ray is also the driving force behind Line Cook Thoughts, a platform to share the stories of food industry workers and to advocate for a better culinary industry.
Ray and I talk about some of the common challenges cooks face and we dive into what the wider community can do to improve the culinary world. After all, those of us who love food and restaurants have a role to play if that scene is going to survive and flourish. I also put Ray on the spot to speak for all Americans as to why we don’t see more Canadian wines on US wine lists. This leads to a great talk about emerging wine regions, and Ray rounds out his visit to Cheftimony by sharing some cooking tips you won’t want to miss.
After my talk with Ray, I’m joined by my co-host Tania Tomaszewska of TT Wine Counsel for our second instalment of SideBar on Cheftimony. SideBar is the segment where Tania and I dive into the world of wine, and today our discussion is all about the rapidly-growing Canadian wine industry and what its players are doing to make sure Canada’s great wines are recognized around the world.
Join Ray, Tania, and me – Line Cook Thoughts ahead!
