The most direct translation of this concept is “food of the
earth”. Terroir is a French
term used to describe the unique flavour imparted to food or drink
by a region’s specific climate, soil, weather and growing
conditions.
We chose “Cuisine du Terroir” as our
concept for Joy Road Catering because to us it means food with a
strong sense of place.
Whether we’re preparing a gourmet alfresco
vineyard dinner, designing a customized menu for an exclusive
event or baking fine French pastries for the Farmer’s
Market,
we use only the freshest, locally-produced seasonal ingredients
available.
This year, we have partnered with the Vancouver Aquarium Ocean Wise Program.
We find their philosophy of sustainable harvest to be very much in keeping with our own.

To experience a true taste of the Okanagan, join
us for an intimate, multi-course
vineyard dinner at God’s Mountain Estate every Sunday evening
starting in May.
Our 2010 season Dinner with a Winemaker Series will be held on Thursday evenings. This is a rare opportunity to meet, and glean knowledge from some
of our favourite local vintners.
We look forward to celebrating the bountiful Okanagan with you this summer!
