Chef’s Table ft. Braven: Downtown Dining Week & Comfort Food
This week on the podcast we’re joined by Braven, Kindred and Alchemy Chef, Jason Greene, for a behind-the-scenes look at one of downtown’s most exciting culinary experiences. Chef Jason walks us through his approach to food, how Braven’s menus come to life, and why Canadian, Albertan, and locally sourced ingredients are at the heart of everything they create, from the inspiration behind the dishes to the techniques that bring them to life.
We also preview some incredible bites from Braven’s upcoming Downtown Dining Week menu, including Spicy Salmon Bites and crispy-gooey Mac & Cheese Bites. Beyond the food, Chef Jason shares what it’s really like behind the pass in Braven’s semi-open kitchen, how the energy shifts on Oilers game nights, and what makes the full Braven dinner experience so memorable.
We also dive into what’s happening across the family of restaurants, from Alchemy’s new creative direction, DJs, and live oyster-shucking moments, to Kindred, the bright downtown lunch spot that’s quickly becoming a local favourite.
