To Glenn Sheridan food is much more than a source of sustenance; food is also a way of life. The manner in which a meal is prepared, presented and consumed is all part of the culinary experience and is where he consistently focuses his attention.

Living in the UK provided a fresh perspective of the British pace of life versus the North American lifestyle known for its quick and rushed meals. During his stay he was selected as a finalist for the Hilton Chef of the Year competition out of a group of nearly 400 entrants and placed 4th, a feat in itself considering he was an immigrant to the country.

The European influence suits Glenn well as his personable attitude exudes patience, passion and confidence. All of these characteristics serve as critical ingredients for a master in the kitchen and as a mentor to his subordinates who serve under his wing.

His experience abroad has resulted in the culmination of an extensive selection of classic French dishes suitable for a sophisticated clientele seeking a memorable event. Having catered to such names as Paul Martin, Mike Holmes, Collin James, John Malkovich and Liv Tyler to name a few. He has also personally catered to Johnny Reid, K.D. Lang, The Bare-naked Ladies and the legendary Gordon Lightfoot with his own Catering Company Sheridan Catering. Glenn has consistently proven himself to be an impressive performer with the kitchen being his stage of choice.

In 2011 Glen embarked on his dream of opening a Fine Dinning restaurant It was a beautiful industrial intimate environment Despite in being very popular with the tourist to North Bay and wining small business of the year award for under 50 employees and winning food competitions. there just wasn't enough local interest to be sustained and sadly Glenn had to close the doors in May of 2012.
