I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked “what’s your favourite restaurant?” and my answer is simple. I don’t have one. For me, when all is said and done it comes down to the food, so I follow the chef more so than the restaurant, and in this case I follow Chef Hamid Salimian.

I’m a huge fan of exploring street food in every new place I visit. It tells me a lot about their food culture. To really get a taste of what a city has to offer, you have to go across the board and experience high and “low” end dining and everything in between. Follow Me Foodie to New York Street Food!

I guess you could say I grew up watching Anna Olsen’s baking show Sugar. I would always get so jealous that she could fit 3 recipes in one half hour episode. I attended her Edible Canada at The Market Dinner where she featured a multicourse dinner. See her recipe for Fiddlehead Salad!

Behind me was the skyline of my beautiful city and on my plate was the rest of the world. It was a refined style and exploration of unique ingredients executed with very subtle and delicate flavours. The flavours were simple, but very finely tuned. It was the work of a passionate chef.

Holy crap! No, not the cereal, but just holy crap. I don’t know how many Mother’s Day restaurant promotions are happening around Vancouver, but my inbox is literally flooded with Mother’s Day menus. It’s the busiest day of the year for restaurants. Follow Me Foodie to Mother’s Day Brunches!

It’s an upscale restaurant serving Pacific Northwest and West Coast cuisine, but on occasion I felt a disconnect in the theme of the restaurant and the approach to the menu. I was on the Boneta board for the most part, but there were some hit and miss dishes.
