Vancouver | Boulevard Kitchen & Oyster Bar opening soon!

Alright Vancouver, I know you must be getting sick of my Toronto-centric posts all the time. I love how much buzz you have helped us create on the other side of the country considering I’ve never even been to visit. I’m like that long distance family member that you’ve never met in real life but have talked to on the phone forever. Let’s fix that soon, okay? I think it’s about time I come experience all the beauty, food & wine I keep reading and writing about.

I’m SO excited to tell you all about Boulevard Kitchen & Oyster Bar opening this summer in the iconic Sutton Place Hotel (845 Burrard Street, Vancouver). Continue reading “Vancouver | Boulevard Kitchen & Oyster Bar opening soon!”

Food & Wine | Get Naked in The Kitchen

In the day and age of processed food and quick fix meals, sometimes it’s hard to know what we’re putting in our body. Add to that all the new studies on what you should and shouldn’t be eating, when to eat it and how much to eat. It gets a bit confusing, wouldn’t you agree?

I personally try to stay ahead of the food trends (as seen on my latest monthly contribution column to Get Out Canada) and eat at the latest restaurant hot spots. But what I really enjoy is to come home and be in the kitchen cooking, doing what I love. The sad part is that not many people share this enthusiasm or knowledge, and aren’t even sure where to start. The problem is that people need to fall in love with food again. Continue reading “Food & Wine | Get Naked in The Kitchen”
