A couple of years ago, when I was toying with the idea of going into the kitchen, I ate at Cowbell. It had been open for a while and making waves in the Toronto dining scene. Fresh food, whole animal butchery and a commitment to farmers and producers in the local area. Now, these concepts are finding their way in to the everyday food lexicon, but back then, it was a new approach to running a restaurant.
The meal was great, but what I won’t forget was the bread and butter, both homemade. Simple and delicious.
When it came time to choosing a place for me to intern while in school, Cowbell was at the top of my list. After a brief interview, I was working in a whole different concept of restaurant.
My time there has come to an end and I am very grateful for the experience. Thank you to everyone at Cowbell who made my time there so enriching.
