On this week's episode we have long time chef and educator Ben Kiely. Head instructor at the Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts here in Vancouver. His many years of cooking in England and across Europe led him to Greece where he found himself falling for a Canadian woman and he followed her back to Vancouver and they started a family. A story as old as time. Especially for a cook. I hope you enjoy Ben's insights on this business and industry at large. I really enjoyed chatting with him. Send us your feedback
