Do you consider yourself a culinary tourist? Culinary tourism is defined as the pursuit of unique and memorable culinary experiences of all kinds, often while travelling. Food inspires many of us to make destination choices. Dining out provides the opportunity to get to know local food and people; what, when and where people eat and how that food is sourced offers insight to a region and its residents. With more people traveling to renowned food destinations, cities like Winnipeg will contribute to fond vacation memories.
This special travel issue of Ciao! celebrates the relationship between food and travel. Expanded circulation reaching Grand Forks and Fargo is designed to encourage a visit north. Ciao! travels reveals some great places to hike or bike on a short day trip outside the city. To help plan summer holidays a summer calendar of events and activities has been provided to enrich each day. Winnipeg’ s diverse restaurant landscape is presented through the chefs featured in the kitchen and ciao! cooks as well as our directory of the city’ s bests. We went behind the scenes at the Exchange District hotspot, The Mitchell Block to see Chef Sean McKay at play. Recipes resulting from our afternoon with him appear on these pages- and on his menu. What’ s more, Ciao! editors have reviewed some of Winnipeg’ s best dining destinations in top tables.
If you are planning a trip to Winnipeg or are a resident with visitors, we hope you enjoy the summer and its vibrant flavour.
