The Spanish D.O.(Denomination of Origin) Rías Baixas will host an in-person dinner at The Chef’s House on Wednesday, November 15th, in partnership with The Centre for Hospitality and Culinary Arts at George Brown College. The evening will feature Spanish wines, paired with a five-course menu created by George Brown College students under the tutelage of Chef instructors.

Rías Baixas is renowned for the Albariño grape, a native variety that produces some of the world’s foremost white wines. Located in northwestern Galicia, a lush area known as Green Spain, Rías Baixas shares the same mineral-rich soils and cool climate as renowned regions like France’s Loire Valley, Marlborough in New Zealand, and the Rhine region of Germany. Elegant and food-friendly, the local Albariño variety has always been the flagship of this coastal Atlantic region and is a favorite with chefs, sommeliers, and fine wine lovers.

The Chef’s House is a one-of-a-kind student-operated restaurant in Canada, located in the heart of downtown Toronto. It’s an innovative, student-focused concept restaurant, where George Brown Centre for Hospitality & Culinary Arts (CHCA) students have the opportunity to learn through experience.
