Aboriginal Culture

The cuisine that Kitchens of Distinction Culinary Arts Ltd. designs and creates is prepared with your wellbeing foremost in mind. Our philosophy is based in Traditional practices. We were taught to never prepare or cook food unless it is prepared with love, passion and positive healing energy in order to nourish our bodies and our spirits so that we can live our lives in a good way. It does not matter what Nationality we originate from. Preparing, cooking and sharing a meal, connects us to our Culture, one another, and our Spirit.

Traditional Feasting is an important part of  Indigenous Cultures. Feasts are held for every occasion; to celebrate a birth or celebrate a life lived and everything in between. A feast creates positive energy within the environment of a gathering in order to connect the spiritual world  with the physical world, allowing us to connect at a deeper level with one another in an authentic honest way.

I attended a large community gathering, 400+ guests, at the Victoria Native Friendship Centre in July of this year and was very impressed with not only the food but the presentation and variety of options. I approached Ms. Lang to cater a small birthday get together. Although I was working within a specific budget and had several dietary restrictions to consider Kitchens of Distinction was happy to take on my party. It took nothing more than a meeting over coffee, an email and a telephone call before the plans were set.  Ms. Lang was prepared with several menu options and ideas for our reception style event. The day of the event Ms. Lang arrived promptly and set up her delicious food in no time.  She even offered suggestions on food placement in the room to consider conversation clusters, flow of the room, as well as timing, storage, heating and service of each item. I look forward to using Kitchens of Distinction again and recommend them for any food service event large or small.”
