Your Local Taste Buds are bringing you their BIGGEST and LONGEST food experience yet: DISHED!

With over 20 participating restaurants across Cornwall and SDG — many of which are newly featured by the Taste Buds — DISHED is a chance for residents to enjoy some innovative and tasty options right in their own backyard.

Participating restaurants were asked to showcase a new, special or signature dish starting Friday, February 5th until the first week of March. If you miss travelling, you don’t have to leave your region or bubble to experience a dish from around the globe! From authentic Thai, Greek, Indian, German, Italian dishes and more, there is sure to be something that will satisfy your taste buds.

“We have an amazing culinary scene and Dished is all about showcasing and supporting it,” said Kevin Lajoie of Cornwall Tourism. “It’s a chance for local residents to safely try a new dish or an old favourite while supporting the restaurants that add so much to our community.”

“SDG Tourism is excited to partner with Taste Buds and Cornwall Tourism to bring you Dished, an exciting new foodie event!” said Karina Belanger of SDG Tourism. “Now more than ever our local restaurants need your support, so have fun tasting some new featured dishes, and maybe find a new favourite!”

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, many local restaurants have added new menu items, created classic and trendy pairings, and even opened their doors despite current challenges. Now is your chance to expand your palate and find a new favourite while staying safe at home.
