Culinary Tourism Training Opportunity
A great proportion of visitors to Newfoundland and Labrador are looking for unique opportunities to connect to place and people. As a people food has been much more then just something that we eat, it is something that sustains a way of life in NL. Our traditions of food gathering and preparation have deeply connected us to the land and sea for centuries. So the great question now is how do you make sure that every visitor that comes to NL gets a little of who you are as a people through a unique experience.
Join Lori McCarthy, award-winning owner of Cod Sounds who will share with you her story of growth and development as one of the top “foodie” experiences in Newfoundland and Labrador. Over the course of the day Lori will engage you in an actually food experience and use that as the basis for larger discussions on how you can capture and tell your story to visitors through food.
