Chef Andrea Nicholson (@ChefAndreaNicholson) is a Red Seal-certified culinary innovator, entrepreneur, and TV personality whose passion for food began at age 13. A George Brown College alumna, she blends classical training with the deep-rooted inspiration of her grandmother’s cooking, championing sustainability and seasonal, local ingredients.
Andrea’s career includes roles at top Toronto restaurants like Luce, Via Allegro, and Trattoria Nervosa, and training under pizza master Roberto Caporuscio in New York, earning certification from Italy’s Associazione Pizzaiuoli Napoletani. Her love of bold flavours inspired the launch of Killer Condiments, a line of small-batch sauces distributed across Canada.
She rose to national fame on Top Chef Canada and has since become a regular on The Marilyn Denis Show, Fire Masters, BBQ Brawl, and more. Andrea owns Butchie’s (@ButchiesRestaurant), a beloved Durham Region restaurant featured on Big Food Bucket List, as well as Banana’s by Butchie’s Ice Cream Sandwiches. She also runs Dish Play (@DishPlay.ca), a 10,000-square-foot event space focused on immersive culinary experiences.

Pour la très occupée chef Andrea Nicholson, de Food Network Canada, cette cuisine colorée est l’équivalent d’un bain de forêt. Pour elle, cet espace lumineux est l’endroit idéal pour profiter de moments en famille.
Pour sa conception, Andrea et son mari ont fait appel à la designer Orsi Panos.

Butchie’s may be home base… but once in a while, we take it offshore 🌊🇭🇷
In May 2026 (May 9–18), I’m hosting a small, intimate luxury yacht experience along Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast with @royaldalmatiayachting onboard the gorgeous #symphony
We’ll sail Split to Dubrovnik, stopping in places like Hvar, Korčula, and Vis — mixing iconic ports with quiet, lesser-known spots you simply can’t reach by land. Expect morning swims straight off the yacht, unhurried afternoons exploring old towns, long lunches ashore, and golden-hour evenings on deck with a glass in hand.
Throughout the journey, I’ll be onboard hosting and sharing relaxed, informal cooking demos inspired by the region. No schedules, no pressure — just beautiful ingredients, simple techniques, stories, and the kind of food that brings people together. Very on-brand.
This is not a cruise.
No crowds.
No megaships.
Just a beautifully appointed yacht, an exceptional crew, slow days, and front-row views of the Adriatic.
✨ Elegant ensuite cabins
✨ Expansive sun + lounge decks
✨ Swim stops in hidden coves
✨ Thoughtfully all-inclusive experience
If you’re someone who trusts good food, values connection, and prefers experiences that feel curated rather than commercial — this is something really special.
Come explore Croatia with me.
Full itinerary + details in bio.
(And yes… it also happens to be an incredible gift.)
Cheers,
Andrea

“This was a builder-basic home with a major lack of personality,” says designer Orsi Panos (@orsipanosinteriors). Homeowner and Food Network Canada chef, Andrea Nicholson (@chefandreanicholson), had long been a fan of Orsi’s work and tapped the designer to reimagine the home’s main areas including the kitchen, dining room, living room and powder room. The goal was to create a colourful space that prioritized storage and functionality. “It really feels like a home to us now,” says Andrea of the newly renovated space. “I smile when I walk through the doors.” Take a look! #HouseandHomemag
