Foodie Trends and Recipes with Chef Alexandra Shaw
Alexandra Shaw began her culinary journey as a young girl foraging through the forests of Newfoundland, collecting unidentified twigs, ber- ries and leaves to create dishes using her un- tamed imagination. She then took her skills across Europe, training in restaurants, villas and on farms, learning the importance of minimizing food waste and making it her mission to find purpose for the ingredients most don’t see value in – encouraging guests to release the pretension around food and embrace its valuable. Alex wants people to be part of the creation pro- cess by connecting with the land that provides for us. Her menus don’t just tell you what the dish is, why it came to be. When you sit down to dine with her, you’re not just being fed: you’re being im- mersed into her world of playful exploration and wonder. Join Alex at The Cape Retreat in Newfoundland.
