A bash brought to us by Destination Toronto, was held at TIFF Lightbox celebrating the series’ new season and the food at a reception before a panel (moderated by Amy Rosen) and screening couldn’t have been any better, with Food Dudes paying tribute to ingredients from some of the Canadian cities in the current season of the beloved cooking competition. Guests enjoyed a Raw Bar, Duck, Ravioli, plus an array of delectable pass-arounds.
