Meet Chef Kil Tlaa'sgaa (Brodie)
Meet Chef Kil Tlaa'sgaa (Brodie)
Passionate about rediscovering the flavour profile of his ancestors, Kil Tlaa'sgaa (Brodie) boldly shares culture by harnessing the bounty of land and sea. Creating inventive dishes by casting aside the techniques used in western cuisine ignites Kil Tlaa'sgaas’ soul, and the result is exquisite.
A Haida citizen, who spent much of his childhood picking seaweed, digging for razor clams and collecting sea urchins with his family, Chef Kil Tlaa'sgaa uses traditional ingredients and techniques to showcase Haida Gwaii’s rich heritage. His raved-about seafood fritters, stuffed with rock scallops, octopus, razor clams, cockles, spot prawns, herring roe, smoked cod, and local seaweed, are just a few examples of how he draws from the memories of his youth.
As Indigenous Haida culture drives every guest experience at Haida House, Chef Kil Tlaa'sgaa – whose Haida name means strong voice – is the ultimate culinary ambassador. Join us in the Haida House dining room to experience it for yourself – but don’t forget to make a reservation!
