Soy Stained Eggs Recipe
A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending an event at Fable Kitchen in Kitsilano. Egg Farmers of Canada and Chef Trevor Bird curated a special menu pairing eggs with local, seasonal ingredients and local wines. While food trends may come and go, eggs are always in style and in season. And something else, eggs…
New Spring Menu at Rocky Mountain Flatbread Co.
Now that I’m a parent, I find myself making dining compromises if I want to take the whole family out. Even though Dylan is a very well-behaved 4-year-old and a foodie on his own accord, he’s still a little kid, and sometimes he acts out – something little kids are known to do. It’s hard…

Sophie’s Cosmic Cafe
I’ve been trying to go to Sophie’s for months – this place is always packed. In the Kitsalano neighbourhood, this is not just a breakfast place, it’s THE breakfast place. The decor inside is very unique – vintage toys, posters and toys adorn the walls. The atmosphere is laid back and homey. Like I mentioned…
Tera V Burger
The city of Vancouver has become the first city in Canada to embrace “Meatless Monday,” encouraging residents to forego meat for one day a week for the sake of the planet and their health.
