Chef Challenge 2023

On June 22, 2023, Dania Home hosted its first 'Chef Challenge' event with the famous celebrity Chef Vikram Vij of Food Network Canada and the CBC Dragons' Den. It brought together over 50 people, in particular, Dania residents, families, and staff along Angel Food Chefs from various care communities.  All chefs worked together with select Dania Home residents to cook specific dishes, which Chef Vij judged. The outcome was a complete tie across the field since all dishes met his expectations.  We are thankful to Chef Vij and everyone who participated at this successful event. A special thanks also to Recreation Consultant Leslie Torresen, Angel Food President Nader Tabesh & Support Services Manager Loveleen Kaur, and the Dania Recreation Team with Coordinator Hazel Baquiran who helped plan and organize it.
