The Ainslie
Chef Ian Blom and wife Kimberly met in Culinary school and had a dream to open a restaurant one day. With the help of family and friends, they were able to make that dream a reality. The Ainslie, named after their son David Ainslie, is now a family operation involving 3 generations.

Chef Blom, who was born and raised in the Cowichan Valley, always took for granted how beautiful the Cowichan region is with its endless outdoor activities. "We have multiple rivers, the ocean is a short drive in almost any direction, there are unbelievable trees and forests and a plethora of amazing organic farms, wineries, distilleries and artisan producers. As a chef I would not want to be anywhere else." The Ainslie is on the leading edge of Vancouver Island's future culinary scene.
