Some of the team members mingling at the Night Market

The Stop's Night Market was a great success this year and the team not only had a great time sharing their design work with the crowd each night, but also met up with a few familiar faces from Food Network including Top Chef Canada, No Reservations, and other television shows.



An extremely popular Indian author and chef, Vikram Vij was far from his usual Vancouver stomping grounds at The Night Market and met up with a few of the [R]ed[U]x Lab team members.

Once again the team had a chance to meet with David Haman's colleague and Top Chef Canada contestant Dustin Gallagher who was having a great time at the Stop Night Market.



The team also took a moment to meet Jonathan Goodyear from Top Chef Canada Season 3 - his food was great and he was a very classy gentleman.

Architects are foodies.  There are so many commonalities between architects and chefs including:

-we both are familiar with creating extraordinary things from basic ingredients

-we both create things that are necessities of life

-we both are passionate about what we do and create

-we both have to pay our dues in the industry

-we both operate well into the evening

-we both suffer from knife wounds

There are more but likely not suitable for posting...

Needless to say, many architects enjoy watching Food Network or cooking shows on their occasional free moments, so it was a special treat to not only meet and greet with notable restaurateurs and chefs but also people from from Food Network shows including various hosts and participants such as Kevin Brauch (Iron Chef America: The Series and then Thirsty Traveler) and Dustin Gallagher and Steve Gonzales (Top Chef Canada).
