The Story Behind Canada's Most Luxurious Smoked Salmon

From a Family Recipe to a National Craving

Behind every silky slice of Fish Delish smoked salmon is a legacy you can taste.

This isn’t your average grocery store lox. Ours is a cold smoked salmon so refined, so thoughtfully crafted, that it borders on obsession. And that’s because it comes from a man who made food his life’s work - and his legacy.

A Culinary Legacy from Russia to Canada

The story begins in the kitchen of a seasoned culinary professional born in Russia. A chef with decades of experience running fine-dining restaurants and luxury hotels, he spent his career perfecting dishes designed for the most discerning palates. One of his proudest creations? A cold smoked salmon recipe that was equal parts tradition, technique, and artistry.

When he moved to Canada in the 1990s, he brought this secret with him - not written on paper, but passed on in the careful way he taught his son. That son? Jacob Rivkind, the founder of Fish Delish Canada.

A Masterpiece Reborn for a New Generation

With a passion to carry on his father's tradition, the next generation took that recipe and elevated it. Fish Delish Canada was born out of love, pride, and a deep respect for artisan craftsmanship. The mission was clear: to bring that extraordinary smoked salmon to people across Canada - one hand-sliced, hand-crafted batch at a time.

What Makes Fish Delish Different?

It’s not just smoked salmon. It’s an experience.

• Handcrafted in small batches by skilled artisans.

• Made in Canada using fresh, kosher-certified Canadian fish.

• Premium royal loin cuts only (the most tender, flavourful part of the fillet).

• No weird aftertaste. Ever. Just a clean, buttery finish that lingers in the best way.

• Dry-cured with all-natural ingredients, no artificial preservatives.

• Naturally cold smoked with filtered, clean smoke for a silky, sashimi-like texture.

From the signature Original Recipe to Salmon Jerky and to elevated flavours like Beets & Brandy, Dill & Mint Gravlax, or Spicy Pastrami Lox, every slice reflects our commitment to bold flavour and uncompromising quality.
