The 80th anniversary edition of RC Show takes place April 7-10 in Toronto. It will showcase a selection of classic competitions and exciting new events, including latte art, breakfast sandwich and pastry competitions
Canada's Leading Hospitality & Foodservice Trade Event
Restaurants Canada's series of competitions offers contestants the chance to share their potential, inspire people, and feed their passion (and judges!) at RC Show. The heart of the show is the goal of helping fuel success through advocacy, connection and support to create vibrant and thriving restaurant and foodservice communities across Canada. Expanding and connecting the culinary community, and bar and coffee talent is at the forefront of what each competition sets out to do. Assertiveness, access and a new approach were just a few of the tools past competitors say they've gained through these career-making experiences.
With 80 years and counting, Restaurants Canada knows a thing or two about ensuring the stage is ready to showcase the skills these competitors have up their sleeves. The national association is proud to be hosting its annual line-up of captivating competitions, see below for further details.
