VANCOUVER — Denny’s Canada has opened a test kitchen restaurant in Vancouver, creating widespread community participation to help influence and inform its renowned all-day menu. Vancouver makes history as the first Denny’s test kitchen, with more slated to open in various markets in the coming year.
With the launch of its new test kitchen, Denny’s is handing over the reins to its guests, giving them the opportunity to taste and critique new dishes and influence what ultimately makes the cut. The kitchen will rotate menu items throughout the year, with flavours and recipes altered based on guest feedback.
Current test kitchen offerings include the Twisted Club, served with a brand-new coleslaw and Denny’s classic wavy-cut fries; the All-Canadian Diner Breakfast; Fettuccine Marinara with chipotle prawns; and updated versions of Denny’s classic burgers.
“We couldn’t just change our menu without input from our guests, especially when we have so many classic favourites like The Grand Slam and Moons Over My Hammy,” says Deborah Gagnon, Denny’s Canada president, and COO.”There’s no better way to shape the future of our menu than by inviting our community to give their unfiltered opinions on which dishes live up to the test.”
