About Us
Chef Peter
Hello there. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Chef Peter Bochna a Red sealed Chef and food curator.
I have spent over four decades in the food and hospitality sector. I apprenticed at the Constellation Hotel in Toronto under the tuteledge of Executive Chef Josef Vonlanthen.
After culinary staging in Europe I returned as Head Chef at Lionhead Golf and Country Club managing catering and wedding events.
After 5 years as Executive Chef at Longo’s my wife and I opened a successful high end gourmet food and butcher shop “Absolutely Fine Foods” in the heart of Toronto for 25 years.
Yearning for a change my wife and I Sue (Food and Beverage manager at Glen Abby for 20 yrs) relocated our family to Lake Country with a goal of continuing our culinary pursuits.
After partnering with Chef Becky we are now 4age-ing forward with an exciting new venture. Our commitment to quality and pasture raised produt will be our mission statement.
We will be serving pure comfort food. From our kitchen to your table, we hope to help you create great memories with your families and friends.
All creations are handcrafted in our own kitchen with pure, fresh, natural ingredients. We source our product at local farmer’s markets, apiaries, and specialty farms, supporting local sustainability. In the kitchen, we prepare in small batch sizes so everything is done by hand.
Whether you’re making a roux or reduction, you cannot replace a Chef with a machine!
