Top Chef Hits the Road in Canada—Serving Up Local Flavour Coast to Coast
For its 22nd season, Top Chef is packing its knives—and its cameras—and heading to Canada. Titled Top Chef: Destination Canada, this season is more than just a location change. It’s a love letter to the country’s culinary culture, told through cross-country challenges, iconic ingredients, and a lineup of guest judges that includes some familiar Canadian faces.
From the bustling food markets of Montreal to the coastal richness of Prince Edward Island, each episode serves up more than just dishes—it dishes out the stories, traditions, and ingredients that define Canadian cuisine. It’s a rare moment where Canada’s regional food identities are front and centre on an international stage, giving chefs and viewers alike a chance to celebrate what makes our kitchens—and culture—so distinct.
For anyone in food, travel, hospitality, or simply proud of where they come from, this season isn’t just entertainment—it’s representation.
Key Takeaways:
1. Cross-Country Culinary Journey
This season travels coast to coast, with each episode spotlighting a different Canadian city’s unique food scene, challenges, and local traditions.
2. Star-Studded Guest Judges
Canadian celebs like Michael Cera and Sarah Levy join the judging panel, adding a fun, hometown flair to the mix.
3. High-Stakes Prize Package
The winner will walk away with $250,000, travel perks, major industry exposure, and career-changing opportunities with Food & Wine and the James Beard Foundation.
4. Regional Food Challenges
Chefs are tasked with reimagining Canadian staples—think maple syrup, seafood, and poutine—while representing the essence of each destination.
Why It Matters: This season of Top Chef isn’t just about food—it’s a full-on spotlight for Canadian culinary identity. For viewers and entrepreneurs in the food, tourism, and hospitality industries, it’s a reminder of how storytelling and local pride can put national talent on the global map. Whether you’re a chef, small business owner, or just someone who loves a great meal, this is Canada in every bite.
