Food

Meet our new Executive Chef Adam Proust. Adam comes to us from the mainland. Born and raised in Vancouver, he moved to Victoria to take advantage of the abundance of fresh, local seafood, meat, and produce Vancouver Island has become famous for.
Adam has a passion for all things smoked, cured, brined, and pickled - as well as traditional BBQ and everything brunch-related. Adam is excited to keep our smoker running 24/7 to create all sorts of amazing in-house meats and charcuterie for you to enjoy.
Adam studied at the Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts, and helmed some of the top brunch and from-scratch restaurants in Vancouver such as Red Wagon, and 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters/Lucky's Doughnuts.
He is currently hard at work designing an entirely new set of brunch, lunch, and dinner menus. Stay tuned for new exciting things at The bard.
