Canoe Celebrates 30 Years of Business with Alumni Chef Dinner on August 23

This August marks a monumental milestone for Canoe: three decades of excellence in Atlanta. Canoe is incredibly grateful for the local community’s continued support throughout the past 30 years. From anniversaries and date nights to weddings and graduations, Canoe has been privileged to play a large part in building stories within the community. 

To commemorate this remarkable 30-year journey, Canoe is hosting an exceptional celebration. On August 23, the restaurant will bring together its past, present and future for a once-in-a-lifetime dining experience, showcasing the evolution of one of Atlanta's most distinguished culinary institutions.

This exclusive evening will feature a remarkable reunion of some of Canoe’s most celebrated alumni chefs, including Gerry Klaskala, Chris Hall, Terry Koval and Gary Mennie, each of whom has contributed to the restaurant's storied legacy. They will join forces with Executive Chef Matthew Basford and Pastry Chef Jessica McKinney to craft an unforgettable multi-course dinner. Beginning at 7 p.m., each dish will reflect the unique influence these chefs had during their time at Canoe while highlighting the restaurant's significant impact on Atlanta’s culinary landscape.

With only 30 seats available, this evening will be intimate, personal, and a truly special chance to share a table with the chefs, hear their stories, and experience Canoe’s magic like never before. More than just a celebration, this event supports The Giving Kitchen, a cause that helps restaurant workers in times of need.
