Think Global – Dine Local

Shaw Centre is committed to culinary excellence.

It is a commitment that includes fresh seasonal,

regional, organic and sustainable ingredients, and

extends through preparation, plating and service.

Our carefully planned menus and

exquisitely prepared dishes reflect

growing trends toward eating global

and dining local – appealing to

increasingly varied international tastes,

while responding to the twin demands

of healthy eating and responsible

sustainable business practices. Morning,

noon, and night, our talented kitchen

brigades create palate-pleasing and

beautifully presented selections, with

élan and flair. Prepare to be wowed by

Canada’s Meeting Place™.

Green By Design

In principle and practice, the Shaw Centre is at

the leading edge of healthy, sustainable and

environmentally-responsible dining.

It begins with our selection of

ingredients – with an emphasis on

fresh seasonal, regional, sustainable and

organic products across all food groups.

We adhere to the tenets of safe seafood,

working with suppliers who harvest in

a responsible, sustainable manner. We

serve food and beverages on china and

glassware and serve items such as cream

and condiments via non-disposable bulk

containers rather than wasteful and

polluting individual servings.

We endeavour to donate surplus food

from our operations to charitable

organizations where permitted by health

regulations. And we operate an advanced

waste management system focused on

reduction, recycling and diversion.
