The Push Project
I’d like to introduce you to the:
The Push Project.
We want to push you out of your comfort zone.
We want to push ourselves out of ours.
The purpose of these dinners are simple and selfish.
Creativity doesn’t survive in a bubble.
We want to work with other cooks.
We want to learn and share.
We want to work with both cooks that we admire and cooks that we feel that are under represented and deserve the spotlight.
We want to absorb the thoughts of other cooks and collaborate in the true sense of the word on a meal for a small group.
We are giving you the opportunity to be a part of that small group.
We want you to benefit from our growth.
32 guests at a time.
A collaborative and interactive dinner.
Tickets are $125 plus gratuity ($22.50) and tax ($17.70) = $165.20
Wine and beer will be available for purchase.
Head over to the ticket page on this website to choose which night you would like to join us.
$5 from each ticket will be donated to the Farmers’ Market Coupon Program.
If you would like to contribute more to this beautiful program, there is a donation button on the ticket page as well.
We would love to see you there.
Let’s do this!
Let’s get good food to more people by investing in our local food economy and reimagining it as an inclusive space.
That’s the goal of the Manitoba Farmers’ Market Coupon Program!
Your donation will provide underserved members of our communities access to fresh, local whole food at their neighbourhood farmers’ market.
Because everyone deserves to participate in all that Manitoba has to offer.

Jazz Winnipeg - Dinner and a Show
Erin Propp & Larry Roy have been staples of the Winnipeg jazz community, and their intimate concerts have become beloved by Jazz Winnipeg audiences. This year they're kicking off our expanded Dinner & A Show series. Inspired by the kind of classic jazz club our city is unfortunately lacking, we decided to just go ahead and create it themselves, in partnership with Chef Ben Kramer and Kitchen Sync. Don't miss Erin & Larry in this beautiful setting on Tues June 19.
6pm Dinner Hour seatings include a locally sourced, chef-created 4-course dinner and the performance. The 9pm Cocktail Hour seatings feature the performance with bar service. Two great ways to experience exceptional jazz artists up close and personal. Find out more & see the series schedule on our new Speakeasy blog.
