A sweet Spring. (@sidewalkcitizen caramel/chocolate cheesecake, dulce de leche, flash candied citrus peel and wheel.) #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #yyceats #yycliving #evliving #spring #beautifulcuisines #chefsroll #chefslife #chefstalk #fbcigers #foodshot #foodstarz #foodstagram #GardeManger #Gastronomy #instachef #instafood #truecooks #gastropostYYC #huffposttaste #theartofplating #dessert (at charbar)

Custom drink from the mixology wizards @charbar_yyc. Grappa, rye, yuzu, sweet. We christened this the Yokohama Special. #ChefApprenticeLife #AtTheBar #AfterWork #HappyHour #yycfood #yycdrinks #yycliving #evliving #yyc (at charbar)

Goofing off with my @masterchefcda Season 1 fam, @tammarabehl and @foodbybram. It's been years since I've seen anyone from my season outside of Alberta, and #MasterchefCanada was for the longest time not something I felt comfortable talking about. But now at this point in my career, with good friends like this, I feel more open. I may not have come in where I want to on the show, but I am on the right path to where I want to be. Now that's a prize I could use! #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyceats #yycliving #yyc #evliving #chefsroll #chefslife #chefstalk #fbcigers #foodshot #foodstarz #foodstagram #instachef #instafood #truecooks (at charbar)

@sidewalkcitizen Almond chocolate cake. Orange suprême, Dulce de leche, Maldon salt, almonds. #ChefApprenticeLife #Theartofplating #dailycatch #seafood #tuna #albacore #rare #yycfood #yyc #yyceats #yycliving #evliving #spring #beautifulcuisines #chefsroll #chefslife #chefstalk #fbcigers #foodshot #foodstarz #foodstagram #GardeManger #Gastronomy #instachef #instafood #truecooks #gastropostYYC #huffposttaste #TeamEatOUT (at charbar)

A special dessert. @fiascogelato soft serve, berries, passionfruit-peach coulis, waffle cone chips & key lime white chocolate cookie crumble. Nothing says summer like an ice cold sundae, yo. #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #yycliving #evliving #dessert #softserve #fruit #berries #sundae (at charbar)

@sidewalkcitizen flourless almond chocolate cake, ganache, Dulce de leche, orange & grapefruit supremes, strawberry, topped with burnt almond & orange candy. I call this one "Wings of Glory". I think it looks not bad... #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #yycliving #evliving #dessert #cake #glutenfree #chocolate (at charbar)

This is how to cheese plate. 3 year old Grand Cheddar, Champfleury, escabeche, strawberry, grilled @sidewalkcitizen sourdough. I forgot to put on the pistachios, though. #Facepalm #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #yycliving #yyceats #evliving (at charbar)

Seafood and meat bonanza. Littleneck clams, three types of oyster: Savage Blonde (PEI), Holliewood (BC), Raspberry Point (PEI), Chorizo, Jámon, grilled snow crab legs. Protein lovers rejoice! #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #yyceats #yycliving #evliving #dinner #OnThePass #seafood #meat #chorizo #jamon #snowcrab #clam #oyster (at charbar)

Wild berry compote/raspberry, strawberry mango sauce/blackberry & dulce de leche/orange. 3 sauces, one @sidewalkcitizen cheesecake. #ChefApprenticeLife #theartofplating #blueplate #yycfood #yyc #yycliving #evliving #yyceats #dessert #cheesecake #fruit #sauceart (at charbar)

3 stations, 1 daily catch. Chargrilled red Chimichurri octopus, grapefruit-lentil sprout spring salad, herbed potatoes. So glad I actually had the patience to wait to get this snap before absolutely demolishing it AND a bowl of cheesy fried broccoli. #SorryNotSorry! #BoysWhoEat #ChefApprenticeLife #DailyCatch #octopus #chargrilled #seafood #potato #salad #chimichurri #yycfood #yyc #evliving #yycliving #theartofplating (at charbar)

From a few days ago. Fried boccocini, basil, dressed spring mix & cocktail tomatoes. Who said you can't be good and bad? #ChefApprenticeLife #OnThePass #Latergram #Salad #cheese #tomatoes #fried #yycfood #yyc #evliving #dinner #yycliving #theartofplating (at charbar)

Getting fancy on a blue plate. Making a @SidewalkCitizen blueberry cheesecake into a work of art. #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #evliving #yycliving #chefsroll #chefslife #chefstalk #fbcigers #foodshot #foodstarz #foodstagram #Gastronomy #instachef #instafood #truecooks #huffposttaste #chefsofinstagram #gardemanger #feedfeed #theartofplating #dessert #plating #cheesecake #fruit #ganache #dulcedeleche (at charbar)

I think I'll call this one "Checkmate". What do you think? #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #evliving #yycliving #chefsroll #chefslife #chefstalk #fbcigers #foodshot #foodstarz #foodstagram #Gastronomy #instachef #instafood #truecooks #huffposttaste #chefsofinstagram #gardemanger #feedfeed #theartofplating #dessert #plating #brownie #fruit #ganache #dulcedeleche (at charbar)

An artist can have many mediums. Give me a cake, some ganache, a bit of dulce, some fruit & a good knife...and things like this happens. Although in this case, I have no clue what inspired this one. But it looks okay...maybe? #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #evliving #yycliving #chefsroll #chefslife #chefstalk #fbcigers #foodshot #foodstarz #foodstagram #Gastronomy #instachef #instafood #truecooks #huffposttaste #chefsofinstagram #gardemanger #feedfeed #theartofplating #dessert #plating #flourless #cake #almond #fruit #ganache #dulcedeleche (at charbar)

After work dinner: Salads for days. Marinated octopus (L) & Napa cabbage (R). Gotta be good before indulging in the bad, I say. Especially when there's steak & fried broccoli involved. And beer. And cava. And ice cream... #LateNightEats #yyc #yycfood #yycliving #evliving #yycnow (at charbar)

When you're short on garnishes before service, make some. Tested out some last minute praline with ground pistachios. Torch the sugar, toss on nuts. I ain't no pastry chef but I'm kinda proud of myself I came up with this on the fly. #ChefApprenticeLife #TestKitchen #yycfood #yyc #yycliving #evliving #chefsroll #chefslife #chefstalk #fbcigers #foodshot #foodstarz #foodstagram #beautifulcuisines #Gastronomy #instachef #instafood #truecooks #chefsofinstagram #gardemanger #feedfeed #theartofplating #tastespotting

By request: A dessert platter for six. @sidewalkcitizen brownie + cheesecake & @charbar_yyc's world famous #DulceDeLeche panqueues. Berries and a strawberry compote to finish. Not my best work, but it was okay I think? #ChefApprenticeLife #theartofplating #yycfood #yyc #yycliving #yyceats #evliving (at charbar)

Sides? We don't need no side dishes with this work of art. Last night's feature steak, a T-bone done Chicago medium. Smoky, char-y, beautiful medium. A touch of green chimichurri finishes it. Sorry @gastropostYYC but I think I'm on #TeamNoSides for this one. #Latergram #Dinner #LateNightEats #beef #steak #tbone #yyc #yycfood #yycliving #yyceats #evliving #gastropostYYC #AfterHours #OffTheClock (at charbar)

Deconstructed berry parfait. @FiascoGelato strawberry rhubarb sorbetto, berries, Parilla charred peach, peach coulis, broken waffle cone. A #Summer treat. I think it looks not too bad...eh? #ChefApprenticeLife #SundayFunday #yycfood #yyc #evliving #yycliving (at charbar)
