Devour! – A Celebration of Food, Wine and Film

The culinary community in Nova Scotia is buzzing with excitement about next week’s launch of Devour! The Food Film Festival in Wolfville, NS. Devour! will feature five action-packed days of food, wine and film between November 13-17, 2013.

They will be serving up the latest from the world of culinary cinema, paired with wine tours, tastings, pop-ups, and industry sessions – not to mention the fabulous gala dinners featuring renowned chefs celebrating the very best of local and international food and wine.

The Five Senses Opening Gala Reception

Devour! will be kicking off in grand style with The Five Senses Opening Gala Reception where eleven of Nova Scotia’s finest chefs come together to create a feast for the senses in celebration of cuisine and cinema at Acadia University’s Fountain Commons. The evening will be hosted by none other than Bob Blumer, creator and host of the award-winning shows Glutton for Punishment and Surreal Gourmet.

This gala will feature the following Nova Scotia chefs: Lewis Acker (The Port Pub and Bistro), Craig Flinn (Chives Canadian Bistro & 2 Doors Down), Mark Gray (The Brooklyn Warehouse), Dennis Johnston (of Fid Resto fame), Matt Krizan (Mateus Bistro), Jason Lynch (Le Caveau Restaurant), Jeffrey MacNeil (Luckett Vineyards), Mike McKinnon (Acadia University), Martin Ruiz Salvador (Fleur de Sel), Frédéric Tandy (Ratinaud French Cuisine) and Chris Velden (Flying Apron Cookery).

The gala will also feature Phil Bélanger, 2013 Canadian Cheese Grand Prix jury chairman, representing the Dairy Farmers of Canada with a table of award-winning Canadian cheeses and Jeff Lander will be manning a table with an exotic fruit sculpture courtesy of Pete’s.
