The first-ever Canadian Chef Survey has revealed some very interesting menu trends for 2010.
Local, sustainable and organic food choices top the list of what's hot in Canada's restaurant kitchens. The trends are revealed in a new survey of professional chefs conducted for the Canadian Restaurant and Foodservices Association (CRFA). The chefs were asked to rate a variety of menu items and cooking methods as either a 'hot trend,' 'yesterday's news,' or 'perennial favourite.'
