I’ve interviewed an NHL Hockey Player before, but never interviewed a Chef till today!!
I put together a few questions for CHEF IVAN FLOWERS (also known as the “Biker Chef) who brings 25 years of fine cuisine experience as Executive Chef at Top of The Market in San Diego.
Chef Ivan Flowers is in Toronto, as he will be joining forces with Paul Boehmer, owner of Boehmer Restaurant to collaborate on a Mediterranean style meat extravaganza for a U-Feast event that is being held tonight (June 18) at Boehmer (93 Ossington).
Both Paul and Ivan are biker enthusiasts and will be joined by comedian and radio host Mike Bullard (also a biker enthusiast) as the MC for the evening. Sounds like a fun evening, non?
Here’s a synopsis of my interview:
Question: How many bikes do you own?
Chef Flowers: Only one.
Question: What type of bike do you own?
Chef Flowers: A Harley!
Question: Do you have a favorite cookbook?
Chef Flowers: No I don’t use any cookbooks.
Question: Do you miss NY?
Chef Flowers: I do not miss NY. It was nice when it was diverse but it’s not like that anymore.
Question: Favorite food to eat after a day riding your motorcycle?
Chef Flowers: A sandwich!!
Question: What inspires you to cook?
Chef Flowers: I love to feed people!
Question: Favorite place to travel?
Chef Flowers: Greece (especially the island of Paros)
Question: Poutine..yay or nay?

As you can see, I like to keep my interviews short and sweet.!!
Please keep in mind that U-Feast brings together food lovers who are looking for an alternative to traditional restaurant dining with top chefs, restaurants and wineries.
They offer an experience for those people who are searching for more than just good food – but are looking for “experiential” social dining!
NOTE: Tickets are still available for tonights collaborative dinner!!
