Roving Dinner in Downtown Medicine Hat

This year the Sunshine Skillet did a trial run of a really cool event in downtown Medicine Hat, Alberta. They put on a roving dinner reception where three courses were served at three different downtown restaurants. Guests included members from tourism boards around Alberta, chefs, bloggers, and general foodies. I was there to capture the experience for this new video. 



What was so much fun about this event was getting to capture the energy surrounding the culinary scene downtown. The drinks, the socializing, the beautifully presented plates of food - all of it seemed a bit more special with these unique locations as a backdrop. I think a lot of locals often forget how many amazing local restaurants there actually are in Medicine Hat, and if the event proved anything, it was that downtown is coming back to life in a big way.

The evening began with appetizers at Twist Wine & Tapas Bistro, followed by the main course at the Cypress Club, and wrapped up at Madhatter Roastery for coffee and dessert. Following these guests, most of whom were out-of-towners, proved to be a big eye opener to what we really have here in Medicine Hat. The experience was local, the food was incredible, and the atmosphere was buzzing. Here's hoping this roving dinner was the first of many more to come!
