North Vancouver, October 1, 2008 – You are invited to share your favourite original or family recipe that makes use of sustainable foods originating in the Lower Mainland. At Grouse Mountain, Chef Dino L. Gazzola is dedicated to sourcing the finest and freshest regional ingredients available, creating memorable dining experiences for the discerning palate. Chef Gazzola would like to add your favourite shared meal to the Altitudes Bistro menu, and learn how to make it from you in person in a Cooking with Dino video. 

The Altitudes Bistro already includes great dishes for sharing such as the Baba Ghannouj, the Oven Baked Potato Skins and the famous Grouse Mountain Nachos. The west coast wild salmon is a delicious favourite from the large dishes, local flavours and worldly techniques that give the province its unique character. Send in your shared meal recipe ideas throughout the month of October, and your sustainable dish could be selected and enjoyed by many! 

Looking for inspiration? Why not consult Ocean Wise and Green Table to reference local and sustainable ingredients. With such an impressive variety of fresh and delicious sources of food right here in our own backyard, the possibilities are endless! 

Your Chance to Win! The names of all recipe contest participants will be entered into a draw for an unparalleled dining experience for two at The Observatory. The winner of the contest will receive complimentary dinner for six at Altitudes Bistro, in addition to having their delectable dish added to the restaurant menu for the winter 2008/2009 season. 

Contest Rules: Contestants must reside in Vancouver’s Lower Mainland Region, and can be of any age. All recipe submissions should include organic, local and seasonal ingredients. The shared meal needs to feed four people, and ingredients must cost less than $5 in total. You are also encouraged to mention the farms or retail shops in the Lower Mainland where ingredients were sourced. 

The contest is closed to Grouse Mountain Resorts Ltd. Employees and their family members. Deadline for Submissions: Friday, October 31, 2008 Recipes can be emailed to: eatlocal@grousemountain.com Be sure to include your name and contact information.
