By Lethbridge Herald on July 21, 2022.

Several city establishments will be participating in the fourth annual Alberta on the Plate dine-around festival which runs Aug. 12 through 21.

Lethbridge participants include Italian Table, Mocha Cabana, Nikka Yuko Japanese Garden, Telegraph Taphouse, Theoretically Brewing, Water Tower Grill & Bar and Bourbon and Butter.

Cattlemen’s Chophouse in Picture Butte is also involved.

“This slate of participating establishments showcases the local flavours that influence each region of the province,” said Rheannon Green, Director of Finer Details with Food Tourism Strategies in a press release.

“From the Indigenous peoples who shaped our land to the immigration influences of the French, Ukrainian, Chinese and Vietnamese, the Alberta terroir is shaped by the people as much as by the land which is reflected in the diversity of the restaurants, food products and culinary creators across Alberta.”

Alberta on the Plate is a province-wide dine-around where participating restaurants offer fixed-price menus highlighting local producers, growers, distillers, and brewers. It takes place in conjunction with Alberta Local Food Week and Open Farm Days.
