It sounds strange, but the story of some of Toronto's best BBQ actually began in Europe. Yannick Bigourdan’s journey started in the idyllic South of France, where he was immersed in a rich tradition of family and food. His passion led him to hone his skills at esteemed establishments like Relais & Chateaux properties and Four Seasons Hotels, where he cultivated his remarkable sense of hospitality.
In 2013, after opening landmark restaurants like Splendido and Nota Bene, Yannick brought a new vision to Toronto, founding The Carbon Bar — a dining destination celebrated for its elevated BBQ offering. In 2024, recognizing the need for high-quality, convenient meals, Yannick launched "Shop The Carbon Bar," an innovative e-commerce platform.
Shop The Carbon Bar offers expertly chef-made frozen BBQ, sauces and spices, all crafted with the same dedication and expertise Yannick brings to his restaurants. This venture aims to make gourmet dining accessible to busy individuals so that BBQ lovers can enjoy delicious, high-quality meals without compromising on time or convenience.
Experience the taste of culinary mastery from the comfort of your home with Shop the Carbon Bar. Enter for a chance to win and celebrate the art of fine food made simple.
The $150 gift card is redeemable from Shop The Carbon Bar's online shop, and delivery is offered within Toronto and the surrounding area.
