Thank you all for your participation!
Your stories and photos truly moved us. Please note that our team is currently reviewing all of the submissions we received. The evaluation process is taking a bit longer than expected. La Tablée des Chefs team will contact those who submitted the winning recipes by the end of January 2026, at the latest.
In the meantime, the people responsible for producing the book may have questions about your recipe and story. If so, they will contact you by telephone or email. We thank you for your patience while you await the results.
Among all participating teams, only one team had the chance to win a $1,000 IGA gift card package. The winner is: Ms. Louise Pelletier. Congratulations!
Frequently asked questions
The contest is open to Quebec residents aged 55 and over, teamed up with at least one person from another generation (child or adult). Each team must consist of at least two people.
We are looking for recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation within your family or circle of friends. The recipe must be original, not copied from a chef or website, and prepared as a team.
Each participating team has the chance to have their recipe published in a cookbook sponsored by Ricardo. In addition, a $1,000 gift card will be drawn from among all registered teams. The book will be sold in bookstores and distributed free of charge to 1,000 seniors.
