ABOUT OUR CATERERS

21 CITIES, 14 COUNTRIES

EXCITING. FLAVOURFUL. SHARED

Hundreds of dishes, twenty-one cities in fourteen countries - all of it led to where we are now. The Merchant Kitchen is the product of almost 2 decades of dreaming, brainstorming and planning. Exploring cities and towns along the equator, tasting their food carts, and visiting the local markets have allowed us to bring to the table an experience that enables guests to escape routine and enjoy flavours with friends and family.

The Merchant Kitchen is an idea conceptualized by travel and adventure. Honouring the traditional ingredients, flavours, and techniques of Asia and Latin America, while incorporating the freshest local ingredients possible is our mantra.

An exciting, flavourful, and shared experience. Every item has a story, and every corner of the room has a purpose - all details have been considered. We are passionate about sharing our internationally inspired dishes - bringing globally influenced plates and cocktails to the heart of downtown Winnipeg.
