Certified in only 2019 as a new wine sub-appellation in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, Naramata Bench has quickly established itself as a premium region.
The Naramata Inn’s chef Ned Bell loves to cook seafood and highlight local ingredients. This chowder, a smorgasbord of all things aquatic, is a grand celebration of British Columbia’s finest ingredients.
Chef Ned Bell focuses on hyper-local menus that enhance diners’ connections with Naramata. Here, he shares his savoury and citrusy Geoduck Nachos with Avocado and Grapefruit Vinaigrette recipe—an indulgent dish that serves perfectly as a crowd-pleasing appetizer.
