Follow Me Foodie to Lima, Peru – A taste of Mistura!

By Mijune

Wow! All eyes have been on Peru’s food scene in the last five years, and I finally see why. This “Gastronomical Capital of the Americas” leaves me lots to return for. Mistura is South America’s largest food festival and for the fifth year it was hosted in Lima, Peru.

Follow Me Foodie to New York: Restaurants, bars, food & drinks worth flying for!

By Mijune

This list will continue to grow for sure. It’s New York, arguably “the best” food city in North America. I really dislike “best of” lists and I think “the best food city” is dependent on what kind of food you want, but generally many would agree that New York has it all – and they do.

Best Mexican Horchata Recipe

By Mijune

Horchata is a traditional Latin American and Spanish drink that’s refreshing, flavourful, lightly creamy and sweet, and very simple to prepare. It has a creamy milky texture but is made with rice and water instead of milk. Flavoured with cinnamon, it has all the comforts of rice pudding but in the form of an icy cool drink.

Lummi Island, WA – 2nd Annual First Harvest Dinner Recap at The Willows Inn Restaurant – Part 5/5

By Mijune

The theme of the dinner was ingredients from Lummi Island, but there was no real connection between each dish. It flowed because the dinner was executed by outstanding chefs with the same passion and talent for creating. The overall experience was more valuable than what was served, although what was served was nothing short of exquisite.

Lummi Island, WA – 2nd Annual First Harvest Dinner Recap at The Willows Inn Restaurant – Part 4/5

By Mijune

It was possibly the culinary equivalent to a #1 hits concert and every artist was singing their own tune. Each dish was from a new artist who had a new vision and interpretation using the same ingredients. Their personalities and tastes were so different, so my palate was constantly changing with every dish.

Lummi Island, WA – 2nd Annual First Harvest Dinner Recap at The Willows Inn Restaurant – Part 3/5

By Mijune

In a short few days they each created three dishes for the special 18 course dinner starting from scratch. Most, if not all, of these chefs can take months before they put a dish on their menu, so this was really a change of pace. I didn’t get to witness it all happen, but I got to taste the final product… served by the chefs themselves.

Lummi Island, WA – 2nd Annual First Harvest Dinner Recap at The Willows Inn Restaurant – Part 2/5

By Mijune

Chef and co-owner of The Willows Inn, Blaine, selected five widely-acclaimed chefs to collaborate in this once in a lifetime dinner. The chefs had little to no preparation since the ingredients had to be sourced from the island. They fished, foraged and explored all the island had to offer.
