Sinclair Philip – B.C.’s Award Judge
The footnote on his email, a quotation from Henry David Thoreau, speaks volumes about Sinclair Philip’s commitment to nature.”In wilderness is the preservation of the world.”
When we first met, he convinced me that scuba diving was a necessary part of being a food writer. So, I qualified and have a plaque on my wall saying that I ‘dove with Sinclair Philip and survived…”
With his wife/partner, Frederique, Sinclair has inspired dozens and mentored more at Sooke Harbour House, likely the most honoured inn of its size in the nation, if not on the continent.
Food Day is honoured to have him as an Awards judge. He is sure to provide a unique, likely strident, British Columbian voice.
