OCTA
Ontario’s food sets the groundwork for sharing stories, forming relationships and building communities across our province. Building on that, culinary tourism offers both locals and tourists alike an authentic taste of our province’s bounty. The past few years in Ontario have seen a tremendous surge in the appetite (sorry, we couldn’t resist) for culinary tourism, and the Ontario Culinary Tourism Awards of Excellence came about in order to provide the industry’s champions with the recognition they deserve.
Through their steadfast leadership and unique experiences, both winners and finalists set the bar for what culinary tourism in Ontario represents. By providing these leaders with the Awards we hope to draw attention to the respect and credit that they have earned over the previous year.
