Inflight catering for Ottawa flights

The Ottawa Valley and the farmland that ribbons along the Ontario-Quebec border produce some of the most underrated ingredients in the country. Bothwell and Forfar cheddars from eastern Ontario, maple syrup from the Outaouais — this is a region where the larder is close and the supply chain is short. We source from that network, not from a catering warehouse. Quebec's influence crosses the river here in a way it does nowhere else in Ontario. Tourtière traditions from Gatineau, ice cider from the Montérégie orchards a two-hour drive east, artisan charcuterie from small producers in the Pontiac — the table at YOW can reflect both sides of the provincial line, depending on the mission and the preference.

Regional Catering Menu · Ottawa

Ottawa private jet catering

Fiddleheads in spring from the Ottawa Valley, wild pickerel from the Ottawa River watershed, aged Upper Canada-style cheddars, and Quebec-style tarts — sucre à la crème and butter tart variations — translate well into cabin formats: portioned cleanly, stable through a cruise, presentable without a galley team. For diplomatic and government missions departing CYOW where the principal's preferences are fixed in advance, we build the menu around those specifics rather than a standard selection.
