The event featured over 80 wines, 6 cocktails and food from 14 Vancouver restaurants. We were all there for one reason which was to support BC’s hospitality industry and talent. So Follow Me Foodie to a recap of Dish ‘N Dazzle at The Fairmont Waterfront!

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 recently attended the Edible Canada Market Dinner with Anna Olsen on Granville Island and here is her recipe for Goat Cheese Gnocchi with Pepper Coulis. The intention was to make gnocchi suitable for the warmer weather by making it lighter with goat cheese instead of potato.
Today is the 1st annual and global Food Revolution Day! Encourage kids to explore food. Get kids excited about learning about food! On Follow Me Foodie I’m creating a series of photos celebrating the day. The theme is kids + food. Submit your photos here!

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!

It was my last Alaskan King Crab meal of the season so I decided to have it at Kalok. It’s not a bad place, but it’s just very average. Many of the dishes I’ve had better elsewhere and it just seemed like a homestyle approach to Chinese cooking, but not in that “authentic” way.

It offers modern French cakes and pastries made with local ingredients and West Coast flavour, but with traditional French techniques. I did find most of them sounding better in the descriptions, but it is still one of the better patisseries in the city.

It’s the 35th World Association of Chefs Societies (WACS) in Daejeon, Korea and Chef Tobias MacDonald from La Belle Auberge is the representative for the Americas. I was honoured to be invited to attend Chef Tobias’ final practice run for his Global Chef’s Menu at La Belle Auberge.
