SIP & SCIENCE with TELUS SPARK!
The evening of August 20 was one filled with curiosity and cuisine as Culinaire hosted over 50 Calgary foodies, in collaboration with TELUS Spark, to explore the intersection of culture, and taste through the lens of BANQUET, the immersive touring exhibition which takes a closer look at the science of food through all five senses.

Guests were treated to a welcome cocktail, private access to the BANQUET exhibit, and actions stations throughout where delicious bites were prepared by a team led by Chef Faizal Abdul Majeed, whose experience spans kitchens from the Middle East to Southeast Asia.
Chef Majeed was joined by Linda Garson, Editor-in-Chief of Culinaire Magazine, and organizer of the popular Vine & Dine series here in Calgary, who expertly paired each bite with its own wine selection.
The result? A exciting evening filled with the fusion of culinary craft, global flavour, and scientific storytelling which brought together people, all for the love of food.
