KRISHNA PATEL
My name is Krishna Patel, I am the chef and founder of Vénerie, which began as an obsession long before it became a service. The name belongs to the dated art of hunting, and that is how I am learning to understand this craft. A pursuit with no final destination. Sacrifice without desire. A belief in no limits.
I am drawn to fundamentals, to the basics. I cook the way I think and feel, by questioning everything. I am my food. A journey of mistakes has led me here. I could never be a great line cook. That is exactly why I am here.
Because I love food.
A great chef once said the most important part of a restaurant is the environment you sit in, second to that the service, and third the food. I believe that.
The home is the truest environment there is, a reflection of the inner world. Behind closed doors, people become who they truly are. The service I leave to the exceptional team I work alongside. The food is what I handle.
Wine, food, and drink move in harmony, each element elevating the other in a shared expression of communion, joy, and pleasure. In these moments, the table becomes a place of connection, where conversation, atmosphere, and connection unfold together. At Vénerie, wine is inseparable from this experience.
Guided by some of British Columbia’s top sommeliers, our wine pairings are curated to enhance the overall experience of aroma, texture, flavour & depth.
We offer sommelier-guided wine pairings ranging from approachable selections to some of the most exclusive and alluring bottles in the world, from exceptional wineries across British Columbia to the Grand Cru vineyards of Burgundy and beyond.
