Meet the owner

In launching Workshop Kitchen + Culture, the Canadian cuisine restaurant within the Theatre Junction GRAND space, chef and owner Kenny Kaechele and general manager Conrad Sawatzky had dramatic plans. "We wanted to create a place where you still feel like you are part of what's going on in the theatre. But when you’re dining, you don't want to feel like you’re being jostled by all of the people going in." They enlisted designer Connie Young to transform the space into two separate rooms — the lower level restaurant and the upper studio space lounge. Casually elegant, the space beautifully suits the historical brick-and-stone Lougheed Building in which it’s located. The clientele is as eclectic as the theatre’s stage productions, which lean to international experimental performances. Not limited to evening hours, the restaurant also features a speedy and satisfying lunch service.
