The humblest of all the breakfast foods has come a long way from its butter-soaked days. Popping up on hot restaurant menus and Saturday morning breakfast-in-bed-trays, it just needed a little TLC in the form of avocado, fresh fruit, nut butters or a sprinkle of chopped herbs. A million drool-inducing Pinterest posts didn’t hurt, either. […]

Seeing that rainbows and holographic beauty moments are taking over our Instagram feeds as we speak, it was only a matter of time before the magical colours made their way onto our plates in unicorn form. So, what does unicorn-inspired food consist of? Edible ingredients that imitate the otherworldly creature. We’re talking pink and blue cotton […]

If you live in The 6, you know there’s an abundance of brunch options—from breakfast classics to Southwestern style to dim sum. The bad thing? It can be overwhelming to narrow down the list to just one place. With weekend brunches available only once a week at many spots, we want to make it count. […]

School’s officially out for summer, and you know what that means: Time to finally bask in the warmth of the sun (exposed limbs slathered in SPF, obviously), patio hangouts galore, and best of all, barbecues and cookouts all day, every day (OK, maybe not every day, but pretty much every weekend). However, deciding on the type of dish to contribute to a […]

On the inaugural episode of a web series called Elettra’s Goodness, Elettra Wiedemann, host, model and daughter of Isabella Rossellini, is making brie-stuffed puff pastries, shallot confit and fig-and-raspberry compote with actress Blake Lively. They’re stoveside at Richard Gere’s Relais & Chateau Bedford Post Inn, and, before cracking eggs and unfurling pastry sheets, Lively declares in a tone that is intended to be apologetic: “I don’t ever cook with a recipe. So it’s all a little wild.” She is, we are to understand, in her madcap, recipe-eschewing ways, the ultimate domestic goddess, able to concoct compotes off-book, fired by pure, sensuous instinct. As Lively stirs the confit, she talks about the wonders of balsamic vinegar and making butterscotch with “Elwyn,” the pastry chef at Per Se, while Wiedemann shares a fantasy of tiling her kitchen. We then learn that Lively’s sister once hand-tiled her own loo while sporting Louboutins.

Last night more than one thousand white-clad Torontonians flooded Fort York with food and umbrellas in hand for the city’s inaugural Diner en Blanc. The historic location for the pop-up picnic had been kept secret from attendees—many of them kept in the dark until they arrived on shuttle busses chartered for the event. Guests, who brought their own food, tables and cutlery, enjoyed live music and the company of strangers as they picnicked under the drizzling rain. We can’t imagine that food, rain and white clothing are the perfect pairing, but guests were unperturbed by the weather and definitely dined in style.

The local food industry has been abuzz lately with news that 17 permits have been distributed for mobile food carts throughout the Vancouver area, and I was glad to learn that Licious Living (liciousliving.com), a gourmet meal delivery company, was granted one of these licenses. The company’s healthy options will be much appreciated, especially given […]

A recent trip to Brooklyn Flea at One Hanson last weekend was beyond successful. Housed inside the former Williamsburg Savings Bank, a Brooklyn landmark, it is full of all kinds of delights for the senses.

The market was a sea of mustaches, plaid shirts (despite the 100 degree heat) and Ray-Ban glasses for the men and vintage flower dresses and leather Moroccan sandals on ladies. The entire experience was a sensory overload, making it extremely hard to narrow it all down to a top six list, but after hours of sifting through the treasures, here’s the list of our top six vendors at the Brooklyn Flea:

Vancouver is constantly touted a foodie city, and the proof, as they say, is in the pudding. So even as we complained and zipped up our jackets in breezy June, then stripped and hunted down the city’s last electric fans in early July, we all schlepped out to scope out the slew of new restaurants. Click the images below to see our top five picks, plus a few others worth checking out.

I was in beautiful Brooklyn last weekend, feeling like a Real Live New Yorker for a story you’re going to see in our October issue. Turns out Brooklyn is REALLY REALLY big–a fact that somehow escaped me even though I’ve looked at it on that map thingy in the Manhattan subway a million times. Thank […]
