It's the December holiday season... at least on Come Dine with Me Canada this week. Despite it actually being the middle of summer, the five contestants for this week are celebrating Christmas/Chanukah/Diwali. Those five are: salsa dancer
Sal Girmenia, photographer
Bridget McDermid,
Barb Rebelo,
Pamela Singh, and dog trainer
Nancy Tobis, all who love the holiday season.
Bridget McDermid is the first to host the dinner party. Her Christmas menu consists of mistletoejitos as the welcome drink, goat cheese balls with cranberry marmalade as the appetizer, turkey with stuffing as the main course, and croque-en-bouche for dessert. Bridget realizes that some issues in the kitchen, most specifically with dessert, do not equate to success, but she hopes that the Christmas festivities, including a visit by a special guest, will make up for whatever food presentation problems.
