Canada

From Montreal to Toronto, Calgary to Vancouver, Canada‘s cuisine is sophisticated and worldly, influenced by the influx of immigrants from all over the globe. You’ll find English Canada is related to British and American cuisine, while French Canada uses both the language and the traditions of French cooking.

Each region offers memorable specialties and experiences. Discover plump mussels on Prince Edward Island, and artisan cheeses in Quebec. Ontario is full of Canada's staples, such as the famed back bacon (better known as Canadian bacon), award-winning ice wine and maple syrup—and its newest item, sturgeon caviar from Lake Erie. The clean and clear lakes of Manitoba and Ontario are the biggest wild rice producers in the country. While Alberta is breeding lean commercial buffalo, British Columbia remains famous for its salmon, as well as its oysters and cepe mushrooms. Canadian Chinese cuisine is widespread across the country, so expect to find some good variations on your favorite dishes. The fusion of modern and indigenous makes eating all over Canada a food adventure.—Denise Shoukas
