Lil Chef
Bistro

July 30th - Aug 2nd, we had the privilege of supporting one of Squamish's most cherished traditions - the Squamish Days Logger Sports Festival. As this incredible event continues to grow year after year, so do the challenges behind the scenes. Cooking a few beef roasts perfectly for a restaurant is one thing; preparing 1,500 pounds of beef to the same standard is another entirely. This year, Lil Chef was honoured to provide guidance and support to the catering team. We volunteered our base kitchen, shared our equipment, and offered the knowledge we've gained through years of catering large events. Our goal was simple: help preserve a tradition that means so much to the Squamish community. We certainly didn't reinvent the wheel- we simply helped refine the process. None of this would have been possible without an incredible group of volunteers. Their trust in Lil Chef’s expertise, willingness to learn, dedication, and countless hours of hard work made this project a success. It was a true team effort, and we're grateful to have worked alongside such amazing people. At Lil Chef Bistro, we've always believed that great food is about more than recipes - it's about community, sharing knowledge, and working together. From our beginnings at the Squamish Farmers' Market in 2010, to catering large-scale events, to opening our restaurant in 2018, we've always been proud to contribute wherever and however we can. Thank you to everyone who worked behind the scenes, and thank you to the thousands of people who came out to celebrate another fantastic Squamish Days. Here's to keeping traditions alive for many years to come.
