FOLLOW ME FOODIE: Culinary hot tickets (Food & Wine Events in Vancouver)

Alright, I might be a little late with this article but so is your gift buying if you’re reading it.

Foodies are not easy to shop for. Some would be happy with a gift basket of locally made edibles, while others would say “I have all these.” Then you have the foodies that could make all of the gifts (perhaps even better) or challenge you with where to find a better version. The closer you are to the person you’re shopping for, the more they want the whole package. The worst reaction after opening your gift would be “it’s the thought that counts”, so let’s try to prevent that.

Here is my Holiday Gift Guide of hot ticket culinary events. Why events? Because tickets can be purchased online, and you’re almost out of time. Read the full story.
