Chef Pastorin from Cornerstone will guide the group through the preparation of British Pub Grub
Norm Pastorin
In a nutshell, I started my career graduating from the Culinary Arts Program at Red River College. Continued my training under esteemed Chef Takashi Murakami C.M. as Jr. Sous chef at St Charles Country Club. After making the move into the local restaurant scene, I opened The Grove Pub & Restaurant and following its success proceeded to open Cornerstone Bar & Restaurant where we continue to build on the legacy of two of Winnipeg's long standing establishments.
I competed twice in the Gold Medal Plates competition. In 2014 I was awarded the silver medal, and in 2015, won Gold which brought me to the international level in Kelowna, BC the following year.
I continue to be a proud member of the SOS Chef’s Dinner, and throughout the year participate in various fundraisers in the city.
Both The Grove and The Cornerstone are multidimensional neighborhood pubs where bar and restaurant meet in the middle blurring the lines between fine and casual dining. We enjoy serving internationally inspired pub fare, and a rousing selection of beer, cocktails, and wine in a lively and energetic room!
The menu for this event will be themed after the traditional Sunday Roasts popularized in English Pubs and includes:
Starters: Oysters with mignonette and Prawn cocktail with Marie Rose sauce
First Course: Scotch Egg with brown sauce (HP Sauce)
Main to be served Family Style: Beef Wellington, Spatchcocked Cornish Game Hen, Carrot and Parsnip Glacee
Dessert: Sticky Toffee Pudding
