Renowned for crafting extraordinary culinary experiences, Four Seasons Resort and Residences Whistler announces its partnership with Canadian Chef Natalie Prhat to introduce an innovative plant-based dining concept that blends bold flavours, local ingredients, and exceptional creativity.

Pushing Culinary Boundaries

"When it comes to crafting harmonious combinations, my method involves a deep understanding of flavours and a willingness to take calculated risks," says Chef Natalie Prhat. "This includes the art of combining ingredients that might not typically be paired together. Pushing the envelope, essentially."

Chef Prhat, a culinary virtuoso with nearly a decade of experience in plant-based cuisine, has left her mark on Four Seasons properties worldwide, including Costa Rica, Anguilla, and Milan to name a few. Her creations not only replicate the sensory experience of traditional dishes but elevate them, offering guests unique "aha, that is amazing" moments with every bite.

A Local and Seasonal Focus

The collaboration aligns with the Resort’s commitment to wellness, sustainability, and culinary innovation. Chef Prhat has meticulously crafted a menu featuring vibrant, phytonutrient-rich dishes that showcase British Columbia's finest seasonal ingredients. From Pumpkin Gnocchi with Whisky Cream Sauce to Eggplant Tofu Sandwiches, the menu exemplifies a holistic approach to dining that is as nourishing as it is indulgent.

"Each dish reflects not just the local flavours but also the unique energy and inspiration of the Whistler surroundings," says Chef Prhat.

A New Culinary Identity

This partnership highlights the Resort's mission to elevate its culinary offerings while embracing the growing global demand for plant-based cuisine. Chef Prhat’s ability to adapt to local demographics and seasonal availability ensures that each dish resonates deeply with Four Seasons Whistler guests.

Menu Highlights

Guests can look forward to creative dishes across Braidwood Tavern’s breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus, as well as in-room dining options:

  • Breakfast: Avocado Toast with heirloom tomatoes, pumpkin seeds, balsamic glaze, and vegan feta
  • Lunch: Roasted Beetroot Hummus with za'atar-dusted pita or the Eggplant Tofu Sandwich
  • Dinner: Pumpkin Gnocchi with a whisky cream sauce, baked cranberries, and local sage-toasted walnuts

With this new direction, Four Seasons Whistler continues its tradition of culinary excellence, proving that plant-based dining can be indulgent, luxurious, and utterly memorable.
