Sebastian Cortez is a trained professional chef-turned-butcher. After working as a head butcher at a busy organic butcher shop in Toronto, Sebastian and his wife moved out west to settle down and find a location for Sebastian’s own shop. Located in West Vancouver, Sebastian & Co Fine Organic Meats sells fine meats and prepared items including handmade sausages, bacon, smoked ham, pancetta, prosciutto and much, much more.

Sebastian takes his inspiration from the artisan butcher shops of Europe and South America. His passion for food and fine meats is clear the moment you step into his shop. He takes great pains to prepare immaculately frenched racks of lamb, beautifully tied standing rib roasts, and perfect dry-aged steaks that taste even better than they look. Working from whole carcasses, he loves to talk about cooking techniques to turn tough or unusual cuts of meat into a first class meal.
