Made with Love.
Let's talk about buzzwords, perhaps “sustainability” or “ethical” or even “locally sourced” and how our industry has managed to overuse and under deliver. Well, you can bet your bottom dollar we support our local community and farmers, we ensure our products come from passionate humans producing remarkable ingredients. In our kitchen we make everything from scratch; no shortcuts, always finding new ways to enhance the marriage of flavour and texture.
We envision our food every step of the way through the presentation, the kiln fired artisanal plate our grandma made, and the bend over backwards service our team passionately executes at every event. Ultimately smashing that “wow” factor out of the proverbial ball park.
We live and we cook by our values, posted high above our kitchen wall.
We stand tall every morning and pay tribute to our chef forefathers and push ourselves to excellence.

Jade is Barrie’s number 2 finest export, behind Chef Kevin Castonguay. Jade honed her skills by graduating top of her class in Event Management at Humber College (but who’s checking). After leaving a trail of brilliance in her academic adventures, Jade has become an integral part of Provisions and continues to provide leading service to our guests, one event at a time.
Jason
Chef de’ Partie
Jason joined us after a short career in the coffee business (Starbucks #1 employee). After gaining the courage to speak with Chef Kevin to discuss his undying passion for cuisine, we had no choice but to take in this baby faced, eager, coffee wielding gem of a specimen and teach him how to hold a knife… really. He continues to push his curiosity and learn something new everyday.
