As part of Terroir Symposium 2026, A Distinct Taste of Place brings together three defining voices in Canadian cuisine and agriculture. Drawing from regenerative farming, close chef–farmer collaboration and Canada’s diverse landscapes, this dinner celebrates food grown with intention and cooked with respect. Set against River Café’s iconic riverside setting, A Distinct Taste of Place is a rare opportunity to experience how land, kitchen and tradition come together to tell a distinctly Canadian story, one course at a time.

Includes:

• Welcome Cocktail & Canapés

• Five Course Dinner with Wine Pairings

Dietary Restrictions may be accommodated - advance notice required.

Once Upon a Brunch, inspired by Cinderella, is Terroir Symposium’s signature 20th anniversary brunch experience where culinary artistry and imagination come together. Lead by Chef Liana Robberecht and Terroir Guest Chef Chet Sharma (UK), this event is a collaboration featuring restaurants and businesses along Calgary's famed 17th Avenue.

In partnership with Calgary Opera and 17th Ave, guests are welcomed into a dream‑forward reception with handcrafted cocktails inspired by the words “a dream is a wish your heart makes,” before the experience unfolds into a seated tasting of expressive, flavour‑forward savoury plates guided by the spirit of “they can’t order me to stop dreaming.” Each bite is designed to be visually captivating, emotionally resonant, and rooted in creativity, collaboration, and the joy of beautiful food. The final chapter arrives as a grazing dessert tableau, closing with the sentiment that “where there is kindness, there is goodness. And where there is goodness there is magic.” 

This is not a traditional brunch. It is a modern, magical celebration of 20 years of Terroir’s culinary storytelling, created for those who cherish imagination, connection, and unforgettable experiences.

Included in ticket: Welcome cocktail, a drink pairing, savoury bites, dessert buffet, entertainment. Please note that due to the specialty nature of this event, dietary restrictions are unable to be accommodated.

THE QUARTET TABLE is a one-night collaboration dinner celebrating Canada’s terroir through four distinct chef backgrounds. Each course reflects a personal signature shaped by the kitchens that formed us built around the best of our land and waters: coast, prairie, forest, and field.

Expect a seasonal, terroir-driven menu with refined technique, bold clarity of flavour, and a seamless progression that tells one Canadian story four perspectives, one table, one unforgettable night.

Join us at Oxbow for an immersive evening inspired by the bold creativity of 1970s Nouvelle Cuisine, a movement that redefined fine dining through lighter sauces, seasonal ingredients, and artful presentation. For this one-night experience, our multicultural chef team, alongside special guest chefs, pays tribute to the era with a seven-course tasting menu, with each course individually created and presented by a different chef. This collaborative approach celebrates creativity, technique, and the beauty of Alberta’s ingredients, offering a dining journey that is both nostalgic and refreshingly modern.

The evening begins with a patio reception featuring sparkling wine and curated gin cocktail samplings from Last Best Brewing & Distilling, paired with opening canapés. Dinner follows with the seven-course tasting menu, with each course thoughtfully paired with a wine selected to enhance its flavours and style.

Hosted by Daniele Uditi from Pizzana and the team at Letty, this special dinner brings people together in the spirit of convivium — gathering to eat, drink, and connect. Guests will enjoy a thoughtfully curated multi course menu, each course paired with drinks, celebrating great ingredients, great company, and the joy of dining together.

A night to slow down, share stories, and experience pizza, food, drinks and hospitality the way it’s meant to be: communal, generous, and unforgettable.
