Looking for something fresh, local, and truly unique? Party Chef Market & Kitchen is your year-round destination for frozen meals, local artisan goods, and hands-on cooking classes. Whether you’re shopping for artisanal goods or learning new culinary skills, Party Chef is a must-visit on your next trip to Sylvan Lake.
Shop Local, Support Community
Party Chef’s artisan market is all about collaboration and community. Every product is locally made or Canadian produced, from handcrafted jewelry and art to charcuterie boards and gourmet pantry staples like organic flour, chocolate, and red wine vinegar.
“We give local artisans a place to display their products and we all work together as a team. If they succeed, we succeed,” says Chef Lydia Neergaard, owner of Party Chef.
Sustainability at the Core
Lydia personally vets every producer, visiting farms and connecting with artisans to ensure quality and sustainability. Packaging is compostable, biodegradable, or recyclable, making Party Chef a truly eco-conscious shopping experience.
The market even includes a youth artisan section, where Lydia mentors budding entrepreneurs to create high-quality, one-of-a-kind products.
Cooking Classes & Culinary Experiences
Party Chef isn’t just a market, it’s an experiential kitchen. Join a cooking class in the 800-square-foot kitchen or host a private workshop in your home. Classes run weekly and cater to all ages, from kids’ parties to corporate team-building events.
“We prepare everything for our students so all you need to do is show up,” Lydia explains. “The goal is to show people they can make amazing food with what they have—no fancy equipment needed.”
Students take home everything they make, turning each class into a delicious memory.
