Nobody knew quite what to expect when they first arrived to the Canadian Museum of Nature on Wednesday for an intimate dinner with Jessica Mulroney, an ambassador for Montreal-based food retailer Metro.

The evening, which had an air of mystery around it, started with a cocktail reception in a gallery full of lifelike model dinosaurs (the T-Rex had nothing interesting to say, really). There was no shortage of fashionable beauties present, from Meghan Markle, star of the American TV series Suits, to Mulroney. She’s a style expert and the wife of eTalk host Ben Mulroney, eldest son of former prime minister Brian Mulroney.

Next, everyone ascended one flight of stairs to find themselves in a dreamy and almost magical setting. Awaiting them was an impossibly long and elegantly decorated table with enough room to seat 40-plus guests. The area was lit with hundreds of candles and surrounded by stained-glass windows. Kenton Leier, executive chef of The Westin Ottawa, shared a description of the gourmet meal prepared by him and his team.
Metro, which is one of the sponsors of Winterlude, hosted the cozy celebration as a way of introducing itself to some of the civic, cultural and business leaders of Ottawa as it looks to invest in community events leading up to Canada’s 150th birthday bash in 2017. In town for the event was the head of Metro’s Ontario division, executive vice president Carmen Fortino.
