Mea Culpa. And the best of the season!<br />
By CHRIS McDONELL, <strong>eatdrink</strong> Publisher<br />
It’s pretty easy for “exotic” to become<br />
“erotic” in print, creating red faces and<br />
a few chuckles. e little town of Carp<br />
got “Crap” in one guidebook I read,<br />
but no one in the publishing industry laughs<br />
too hard at these things. “People in glass<br />
houses,” and all that ...<br />
e glaringly wrong headline I typed in<br />
our last issue, misplacing Ingersoll’s lovely<br />
Elm Hurst Inn, was a last-minute (and latenight)<br />
adjustment, after our diligent writers<br />
and editors had done their job. My brain<br />
cramp reected badly on their work, and I’m<br />
sorry for that. If you missed my goof: Good!<br />
Now read the corrected article online. It’s in<br />
our back issue archive, a place well worth<br />
exploring. Our writers are our greatest asset<br />
here at <strong>eatdrink</strong>, and I can condently say<br />
that you’ll nd they get it right.<br />
Hats o to the hard-working people of Huron<br />
County in their eorts to rebuild downtown<br />
Goderich following the tornado in August.<br />
yme on 21, Kulpepper’s Kitchen Store, the<br />
library and other spots on the square have<br />
re-opened, and we wish the best to others<br />
like Culbert’s Bakery, Bailey’s Restaurant,<br />
Coee Culture, All Around the House and<br />
their neighbours while they work on their<br />
restorations. Full details can be found at<br />
Goderich.ca. May this season bring you<br />
together frequently with friends and family,<br />
with plenty of the best food and drink. As<br />
part of your holiday plans, consider going to<br />
Goderich for some shopping and dining as<br />
a thoroughly enjoyable way to support the<br />
town. We really are all in this together.<br />
Peace,

Catering and Holiday Entertaining<br />
Timeless Classics and Contemporary Innovations<br />
By BRYAN LAVERY<br />
Planning a Holiday party or a seasonal<br />
celebration? Whether it’s<br />
an old-fashioned oce party or a<br />
cocktail soirée, entertaining should<br />
reect your taste and personality. Choosing<br />
the proper caterer, restaurant, bakery or food<br />
purveyor will help make entertaining less<br />
uncomplicated and stress-free during<br />
the festive season. Unleashing your<br />
caterer’s or your favourite restaurant’s<br />
creativity is foremost to<br />
guaranteeing a successful event.<br />
A balance of avours, ingredients,<br />
tastes, techniques and food<br />
temperatures should all be considered<br />
when selecting a menu.<br />
And bear in mind that not only<br />
caterers, but many of your favourite<br />
restaurants are well-equipped to cater your<br />
holiday party in-house or in your home<br />
We can’t help but be impressed by caterers<br />
and businesses that support farmers<br />
and food artisans by featuring local regional<br />
ingredients and products throughout the<br />
year. A new wave of passionate and focused<br />
caterers pays close attention to the provenance<br />
of their ingredients.<br />
e catering business is always transitioning<br />
and evolving, appropriating trends from<br />
the restaurant business and from the popu-<br />
THIS HOLIDAY SEASON...<br />
lar culture at large. Flexibility and creativity<br />
are among the components that make the<br />
catering industry so vibrant. Adapting to<br />
culinary trends allows caterers to oer innovative<br />
cuisine, quality products and services,<br />
to distinguish themselves, and help keep<br />
their services in great demand.<br />
e role of the caterer has<br />
advanced from behind-the-scenes<br />
hired help to often being a front<br />
and centre participant at a<br />
catered event. Clients often<br />
look to caterers to provide<br />
entertainment, excitement<br />
and education for their guests;<br />
whether it’s providing a food<br />
tasting or wine pairing, constructing<br />
innovative food and beverage<br />
stations, or instructing and cooking<br />
alongside guests as part of a chef’s demo.<br />
Cooking classes have also become<br />
increasingly popular, and cooking events for<br />
guests have become the interactive entertainment.<br />
Instead of having a caterer just<br />
prepare a meal, guests become willing collaborators:<br />
chopping, julienning, whipping,<br />
beating and sautéing.<br />
In the past year we have seen some truly<br />
stunning events catered by Danjel Markovic<br />

Kristain Crossen of Braise Food & Wine, and<br />
Colin Foster’s (Braywick Bistro) Wicked<br />
Catering, as well as excellent South Vietnamese<br />
Cuisine by Tamarine by Quynh Nhi. is<br />
list is of course by no means denitive.<br />
Here is a brief guide to some newer businesses<br />
and old standbys that can be depended<br />
upon during the busy holiday season, when<br />
we can all use some entertaining ideas.<br />
At Petit Paris Crêperie & Pâtisserie,<br />
Nicole Arroyas puts the same attention to<br />
detail into her baking and pâtisserie as she<br />
does at her restaurant, Auberge du Petit<br />
Prince. Mastering the art (and science) of<br />
creating perfect pastry requires patience, timing<br />
and strict attention to detail. Petit Paris<br />
oers customized cakes and pâtisseries made<br />
from scratch — timeless classics and popular<br />
favourites — all made with the premiumquality<br />
ingredients that have quickly established<br />
the business’s reputation.<br />
e shop features buttery croissants,<br />
seasonal tarts, pain au chocolat, and other<br />
classic French specialties, as well as crêpes,<br />
quiche and croque monsieur (classic<br />
smoked ham and cheese coated in Mornay<br />
№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
sauce). Arroyas’s macrons are legendary,<br />
small, round pâtisseries that are crisp on the<br />
outside, soft on the inside, and made from<br />
ground almonds, sugar and egg whites, with<br />
a vast selection of avours to choose from.<br />
Colleagues recently ordered a unique,<br />
multi-tiered peacock-themed fondant-covered<br />
birthday cake from Petit Paris for seventy<br />
people that had to be seen to be believed.<br />
Petit Paris was opened by Arroyas and business<br />
partner Nathan Russell this past summer<br />
and is strategically located just inside<br />
the front doors of Covent Garden Market o<br />
King Street. www.petit-paris.ca/ 519-433-0647<br />
At the Covent Garden Farmers’ Market,<br />
Penelope Holt’s LOAF continues to attract<br />
loyal followers throughout the season. Just<br />
around the corner from the Covent Garden<br />
Market is Billy’s Deli, known for its seasonal<br />
pies and baking, where you can order Diane<br />
Pritchard’s signature Apple and Mincemeat<br />
Pie early to avoid the holiday rush.<br />
While you’re in the Covent Garden Market,<br />
check out Klieber’s for marzipan or the<br />
hard to nd can of indescribably delicious<br />
Hungarian–style chestnut puree.<br />
Speaking of Hungarian specialties, Agnes
№ 32 | November/December 2011 www.<strong>eatdrink</strong>.ca 9<br />
and Mikki of Taste of Hungary at the Western<br />
Fair Farmers’ and Artisans’ Market<br />
recently announced the opening of their elegant<br />
Taste of Hungary shop located at 1286<br />
Jalna Blvd. Agnes, a professional pastry chef<br />
and caterer, will feature cabbage rolls, goulash,<br />
and chicken paprikash “to go,” as well<br />
as “made from scratch” cakes, traditional<br />
cookies (gluten-free available) and strudels<br />
(try the poppy seed). Mikki will showcase his<br />
all-natural, no-ller, handcrafted premium<br />
sausages. e shop is expected to have a<br />
comprehensive array of Hungarian and<br />
European food items such as jams, spices<br />
and soups, particularly during the holidays.<br />
In other Western Fair Farmers’ and Artisans’<br />
Market news, Flair Pastries Bakery is<br />
opening an Artisan Bakery in Old East Village,<br />
kitty corner to the Farmers’ Market. Pastry<br />
Chef/Owner eo Kortho will be featuring<br />
natural, handcrafted breads made with local<br />
our, as well as quiches, tourtières and other<br />
savouries. e highly anticipated bakery is<br />
expected to open mid-December. Totally free<br />
of articial additives and preservatives, artisan<br />
premium breads are on the rise. Also, Sophie<br />
and Christain Burdan’s Red Cat Farm Bakery<br />
310 Springbank Drive, London (between Wharncliffe & Wonderland)<br />
Open Monday–Thursday for lunch & dinner until 10 PM.<br />
Open Friday & Saturday for lunch & dinner until 1AM. Closed Sundays.<br />
from Goderich and Allan Mallioux’s Downie<br />
Street Bakehouse from Stratford are two<br />
newer additions to the Western Fair Farmers’<br />
and Artisans’ Market.<br />
Choosing a Caterer<br />
For the uninitiated, word of mouth is an<br />
almost foolproof way to secure a caterer<br />
most suited to your particular event. When<br />
undertaking your initial research, be sure<br />
to ask friends and colleagues about caterers<br />
they can recommend. Catering venues<br />
are also a good source of information. Most<br />
venues will furnish a list of their preferred,<br />
respected caterers.<br />
You and your caterer can be as innovative<br />
as you like when considering the many<br />
catering alternatives available. Catering pricing<br />
is dependent on what kind of event you<br />
are going for, whether it is a sit-down dinner,<br />
marché stations, buet or a cocktail party.<br />
Most caterers oer a simple pricing guideline<br />
based on stang, equipment, and the<br />
menu requirements.<br />
It has been my experience that caterers<br />
have varied outlooks about oering tastings<br />
to prospective clients. Some oer them, and<br />

some do not. It is widely understood that<br />
a tasting is oered only once your event is<br />
booked and you wish to sample the menu<br />
that you have conrmed with the caterer.<br />
Many caterers have moved toward a<br />
full-service business model typically associated<br />
with event planners. When planning<br />
your catering, a few options to consider<br />
include the number of sta needed, linen,<br />
cutlery, stemware, décor, owers, music and<br />
lighting. e overall objective is to host a successful<br />
event, of course, and a great caterer<br />
can assist you in planning all the details.<br />

London’s Luxe Revolución<br />
Modern Latin American Cuisine at Che Restobar<br />
By BRYAN LAVERY<br />
Marvin Rivas’s<br />
Che Restobar<br />
on Dundas<br />
is the latest<br />
big-ticket entry into<br />
downtown London’s<br />
burgeoning dining scene.<br />
is is modern ethnic<br />
cooking that embodies its<br />
origins but also highlights<br />
its potential — think the<br />
Serbian-inspired Kantina<br />
or the South Vietnameseinspired<br />
Tamarine, where<br />
progressive-thinking<br />
chefs and restaurateurs<br />
oer a thoughtful and<br />
exciting modern translation<br />
of an indigenous cuisine.<br />
Che features unique,<br />
distinctive and delicious<br />
modern cuisine inspired<br />
by the rich culinary cultures<br />
of Latin America.<br />
e current menu has a decidedly Peruvian<br />
avour, inuenced by Chef German<br />
(pronounced Herman) Nunez’s heritage.<br />
Whatever our tastes, we are appreciative of<br />
restaurants like these for enriching our palates<br />
with culinary diversity, using the skills<br />
and techniques of modern chefs, while making<br />
the dining culture in downtown London<br />
more diverse and gratifying than ever.<br />
Nuevo Latino cuisine is the rage right now,<br />
and Che is the ideal place to experience it.<br />
Incidentally, restobars have been a xture<br />
on the Latin American scene for some time<br />
now and are just beginning to gain a foothold<br />
locally (think Michael Reis’s upscale Villa<br />
Resto Lounge in a former downtown bank<br />
building that was also the rst home of the<br />
Black Fly Beverage Company). More than a<br />
restaurant, the bar/lounge area is a dominant<br />
feature and a prime focal point. e restobar<br />
concept is about social interaction.<br />
№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
Large picture windows fronting on Dundas Street give Che a dramatically open<br />
face at night, while allowing generous amounts of natural light by day.<br />
Che delivers the restobar experience in<br />
spades: luxe surroundings with a welcoming<br />
atmosphere, innovative culinary oerings,<br />
and a selection of interesting wines. A<br />
lot of attention has been paid to selecting<br />
wines that will enhance your experience,<br />
and all are priced for accessibility. You will<br />
not nd any pedestrian labels on this list.<br />
William Menjivar is the passionate in-house<br />
and well-informed sommelier, and in addition<br />
to an ever-evolving list of aordable<br />
quality wines, they oer is a list of intriguing<br />
and exotic fruit-based cocktails. Try a signature<br />
capirinha (Brazil s national drink) or<br />
Cuba’s ubiquitous highball, a thirst-quenching<br />
mojito, or a pisco sour with lime juice,<br />
sugar, egg white and sparkling wine. Menjivar,<br />
an alumni of both Braise Food and Wine<br />
and the Tasting Room, grasps the concepts<br />
of intelligent hospitality and surpassing<br />
customer’s expectations. A little theatrical

Various interesting xtures spread light over the ceilings and exposed<br />
brick walls, creating an extra level of texture in the comfortable and<br />
stylish Che Restobar.<br />
ourish in a bartender’s repertoire is never a<br />
bad thing, and in this case it is often part of<br />
the experience.<br />
A well-designed restobar demands an<br />
in-depth understanding of how restaurants<br />
ow, how customers and sta interact with<br />
the layout. Che does this with aplomb, featuring<br />
exposed brick walls, a long bar with<br />
a granite countertop, and a perfect coign of<br />
vantage, as well as immense Maskros light<br />
xtures that project decorative patterns<br />
on the walls and ceilings. Step up into the<br />
dining room, which, like the bar, has high<br />
ceilings (one of the features of the buildings<br />
that appealed to Rivas), and large picture<br />
windows that allow lots of natural light.<br />
Rivas, originally from El Salvador, relocated<br />
to London from Toronto ve years ago<br />
(after a lengthy stint at Babalúu in Yorkville),<br />
looking for a property that he could develop.<br />
With the assistance of Janette MacDonald,<br />
General Manager of Downtown London,<br />
Rivas scouted for the ideal location, nally<br />
purchasing two adjacent buildings with<br />
great potential and turning them into a virtual<br />
showplace. e restaurant is on a split<br />
level on the ground oor, and the upstairs<br />
houses apartments.<br />
Peruvians claim ceviche as their own and,<br />
at Che, Chef Nunez re-interprets and presents<br />
his signature repertoire of ceviche creations<br />
in a contemporary manner. Ceviche,<br />
a seafood dish popular in Central and South<br />
America, is typically made from fresh raw<br />
sh marinated in citrus juices such as lemon<br />
or lime and spiced with chilli peppers, and is<br />
known as the epitome of fusion (mixing and<br />
matching nontraditional methods<br />
and ingredients and creating<br />
something dierent). It often<br />
uses Incan hot peppers, Spanish<br />
limes and onions and Japanese<br />
techniques for preparing sh.<br />
At Che, ceviche is elevated by<br />
creativity and brilliant avour<br />
combinations such as fresh tuna<br />
in tamarind leche de tigre (citrus<br />
based marinade that is purported<br />
to be both an aphrodisiac<br />
and a hangover cure), avocado,<br />
jicama, Peruvian corn and<br />
yam; or try their delectable wild<br />
salmon in a passion fruit leche<br />
de tigre, jicama, Peruvian corn<br />
and yam mixture. ese dishes<br />
are hands-down winners. A version<br />
with tilapia is less so and has since been<br />
banished from the menu.<br />
Nunez and his culinary team add a ery<br />
splash of Incan peppers (aji) to the kitchen’s<br />
signature citrus marinated wild salmon,<br />
octopus and tuna ceviche. Aji is a fundamental<br />
and ubiquitous ingredient that is<br />
characteristic of Peruvian cuisine, and is<br />
present in most dishes. e best-known<br />
variety used is the very spicy aji limo, which<br />
ranges from yellow to green to red in colour.<br />
The split level works well, with the upper dining<br />
room still having pleasantly high ceilings

Similar to ceviche but subtler<br />
in taste and presentation<br />
(think shashimi), taridito is<br />
a cold appetizer made with<br />
thin slices of citrus-marinated<br />
sh. e tender octopus<br />
tiraditos with an earthy black<br />
olive sauce is a knockout, as<br />
are the fresh tuna tiraditos<br />
with mango and leche de tigre<br />
cream sauce. When these<br />
dishes are served with a side<br />
of confetti of hot peppers<br />
(optional) the taste is deliciously<br />
volcanic.<br />

a medley of Yukon gold potatoes,<br />

It seemed a near perfect day as<br />
I walked past the wrought iron<br />
fence and sunlit golden brickwork<br />
of e Marienbad Restaurant<br />
and Chaucer’s Pub. On entering, I was<br />
immediately drawn into the Old World<br />
charm and comfort of the interior. e<br />
pub has padded hardwood chairs, a<br />
natural stone replace, stained glass,<br />
and an ancient piano in the corner: this<br />
place denitely beckons you to enjoy<br />
the consumption of some heartwarming<br />
food and an excellent pint of beer.<br />
e Marienbad is located on Carling<br />
Avenue in London, just west of<br />
Richmond Street. e almost hundredand-fty-year-old<br />
building was the<br />
original home of The London Free<br />
Press. Housing a few other businesses<br />
after the Free Press’s move, it became home<br />
to the Marienbad and Chaucer’s on March 8,<br />
1974. e Marienbad was intended to serve a<br />
taste of central Europe; opened by a Czechoslovakian<br />
native, it takes its name from the<br />
famous Czech “Marienbad Spa.” Chaucer’s<br />
was meant to echo that same atmosphere,<br />
for a more casual pub crowd. Jerry Pribil,<br />

European Tastes and Traditions<br />
The Marienbad Restaurant and Chaucer’s Pub, in London<br />
By ERIC NEAVES<br />
Situated in one of the city’s more distinguished heritage<br />
buildings, once home to The London Free Press, The Marienbad<br />
exudes a charming Old World ambiance in Downtown London.<br />
restaurant into its twenty-seventh year of<br />
business without loosing any of that touch.<br />
Chef Klaus Campbell, originally from Germany,<br />
has been cooking since his apprenticeship<br />
began at the age of 15. He worked in Germany<br />
for several years, until he and his wife<br />
decided to follow her family to London in<br />
the mid-1980s. After brief stints in a few other<br />
London kitchens, he found his way to the<br />
Marienbad. He took over as Chef in 1988, and<br />
has been happily cooking away ever since.<br />
“I could eat schnitzel every day,”<br />
Chef Klaus remarked when I asked<br />
him what his favourite dish is. e<br />
menu features plenty of Central<br />
European comfort fare: Besides<br />
their famous Wiener Schnitzel, they<br />
also oer dishes such as Hungarian<br />
Goulash, Haluska (small noodle<br />
dumplings), Roast Lamb, and Fresh<br />
Sausage, all with savoury vegetable<br />
accompaniments. With a loyal clientele<br />
who return time and again for<br />

The spacious dining room is full of character in keeping with the<br />
menu that features plenty of Central European comfort fare.<br />
these regional favourites, Chef Klaus has<br />
found a good balance of rotating new dishes<br />
into his repertoire (often with some Asian,<br />
Italian, or French air) while keeping the<br />
popular European specialities.<br />
One such favourite, with an almost cultlike<br />
following, is his Beef Tartare. “I love<br />
it, and for those who do too, we see them<br />
Unparalleled luxury.<br />
Uncompromising value.<br />

again and again.” No stranger to<br />
this dish myself (Chaucer’s being a<br />
favourite venue for a pint during my<br />
undergrad), I was delighted to see<br />
it come out to the table, accompanied<br />
by Klaus’ great big grin. “I’m<br />
always smiling,” he remarks as I dig<br />
in, which from the jovial atmosphere<br />
I’ve always experienced, makes perfect<br />
sense. It’s a happy place to be.<br />
Another claim to fame of both<br />
the Marienbad and Chaucer’s is<br />
their selection of beers. Maintaining<br />
approximately eighty dierent brews<br />
at any given time, it’s one of the<br />
best collections in the city. Manager<br />
Jonathan Fraser takes considerable<br />
pride in his menu, rotating in beers<br />
appropriate for the season: heartier<br />
ales for the winter and clean crisp lagers for<br />
the warmer months. On this visit, I decided<br />
to try the Spearhead Hawaiian Style Pale Ale.<br />
With a pleasing bitterness on the front of the<br />
palate, it nished with a hint of pineapple<br />
and made a perfect pairing with the sunshine<br />
on the patio.<br />

Chef Klaus Campbell’s famed Steak Tartare<br />
Not satised with just the fun of great<br />
beer, Chaucer’s also runs a “passport”<br />
program on a seasonal basis. Patrons are<br />
challenged to try a beer from each of the<br />
countries represented on the current beer<br />
list, over about 80 days. When I try to nail<br />
Jonathan down on how many countries are<br />
represented, he admits “new things y in<br />
so often it’s hard to say for sure — but I joke<br />
that we’ll always have plenty from each of<br />
the six habitable continents, and if a brewery<br />

ever opens in Antarctica then ...” In addition<br />
to their beer, the Marienbad and Chaucer’s<br />
feature a small wine list, with some VQA representation,<br />
which matches their menu well.<br />
Jonathan also points out that they plan on<br />
bringing in more VQA as time progresses.<br />
Both Klaus (with his food) and Jonathan<br />
(with the beer) recognize how competitive<br />
local producers are in the quest for quality.<br />

on their menu are Spearhead, Mill Street,<br />

Klaus brings in primarily Ontario meats<br />
and sh from our Great Lakes, and gets up<br />
early each Saturday morning to replenish his<br />
stock of produce at the Trail’s End Market in<br />
East London. His philosophy on the matter<br />
is simple — “it tastes better.”<br />
Another favourite of the Marienbad’s<br />
patrons is the Murder Mystery series. Usually<br />
running the last Friday of each month<br />
through the fall, winter and spring months,<br />
$39 treats you to a three-course meal, during<br />
which the drama unfolds. Be careful which<br />
table you sit next to, however, as one of your<br />
fellow diners is the culprit. “We’ll actually be<br />
running additional dates around the holidays,”<br />
Jonathan remarks. “People really get<br />
into it.”<br />
Another feature the Marienbad is known<br />
for is its selection of private rooms. e<br />
ground oor features the Atrium, which is<br />
clad in the same golden brick as the building’s<br />
exterior. Its glass ceiling allows sunshine<br />
to pour in over the mural of Carlsbad,<br />
Czechoslovakia (a town near Marienbad<br />
Spa), painted by a family member of the<br />
original owner. is room holds about thirty<br />
people. If you need a larger space, the replace<br />
room upstairs may be more your style.<br />
Almost matching the layout of Chaucer’s<br />
below, this room will host parties of eighty or<br />
so, and is adorned with a replace of its own<br />
and wood furnishings from London’s old<br />
courthouse.<br />
Towards the end of my visit, Jonathan mentioned<br />
that during this past August, Chaucer’s<br />
was host to Art Fusion (londonfuse.ca), a collective<br />
of visual and musical artists. “Some<br />
nights there were things going on in every<br />
room,” he remarks, and adds that events will<br />
likely return next summer. For me, I plan on<br />
being back much sooner.<br />

On the blackboard above<br />
e County Food Co.’s<br />
front, scribed like Commandments<br />
in ten-inch<br />
chalk letters, are some of Janet Ashworth’s<br />
favourite local food sources:<br />
Blanbrook Farms (for bison), Creton’s<br />
Produce (heirloom), Nubrands<br />
Country Produce, Wegman’s<br />
Produce, Orval Zehr (eggs), Carol<br />
Francom (herbs), Caveman Crops,<br />
Ruthanne Bauman (pies).<br />
e list is far from exhaustive,<br />
but it illustrates Ashworth’s de facto<br />
100-mile approach to her business.<br />
“I came to Stratford to see if I could<br />
make a living oering good food, at<br />
aordable prices, using seasonal,<br />
local ingredients,” she says. “We’re in our<br />
fourth year now, so I guess it’s working!”<br />
Bustling about the kitchen at the back of<br />
her Erie Street location, Ashworth recounts<br />
her studies at the Culinary Institute of America<br />
in upstate New York, and 25 years in the<br />
Toronto restaurant scene, including stints<br />
with uber-restaurateur Peter Oliver and<br />
three of her own restaurant partnerships.<br />
But then she visited her friend Sue<br />
Pasquale, owner of the celebrated Boomer’s<br />
Gourmet Fries, now just a couple of doors<br />
away. “at did it,” she admits. “I had a hunch<br />
that I could oer what families need: prepared<br />
meals and sides that are quick, easy<br />
and healthy, which is no joke these days. ”<br />
On a personal level, adds Ashworth, “moved<br />
to Stratford for the people and the culture.”<br />

Fresh and Friendly<br />
Eat-In and Takeaway at The County Food Co. in Stratford<br />
By DAVID HICKS<br />
The County Food Co.’s owner Janet Ashworth (right) and her secondin-command,<br />
Victoria Rose, place an emphasis on seasonal local<br />
ingredients. The multiple blackboard menus get a regular workout.<br />
Farmer-Friendly<br />
e aptly named County Food Co. is also a<br />
xture at the Stratford Farmers Market, and<br />
Ashworth’s jovial, straight-up manner has<br />
forged strong bonds with other local vendors<br />
and farmers. Now those friends keep showing<br />
up with “a bushel of beets here, a case<br />
of broccoli there, an armful of bok choy.<br />
One day we wound up with eighty pounds<br />
of asparagus tips — in this little place,” Ashworth<br />
demurs about her improvisational<br />
approach to the menu. “Whatever’s fresh<br />
and comes in the door is what I use.”<br />
Ladling the cauldron of veal stock that has<br />
been simmering overnight, pondering what<br />
to do with the gorgeous meat falling from the<br />
ribs, she cites her litany of local suppliers,<br />
“C’est Bon goat’s cheese, Arva our, Perth<br />
Pork Products, Shawn Vernon’s apples … I<br />
think we’re just unconsciously 100-mile. I<br />
use what’s fresh and what’s seasonal, and<br />
that works out to be the most economical. I<br />
mean, why serve a pale, cardboard tomato<br />
from California when they’re in season here?<br />
It just doesn’t make sense.”<br />

the o-season to take-home<br />
meals and catering. e dining<br />
room seats 24 on one<br />
side, with the other half dedicated<br />
to take-out, prepared<br />
foods and more chalkboards<br />
crammed with semi-permanent<br />
and daily items.<br />
Ashworth’s second-incommand,<br />
Victoria Rose,<br />
gives a tour of the most popular<br />
items: schnitzels (“We’ll<br />
go through ve platters in a<br />
day”), mac & cheese using<br />
Bright’s cheddar and asiago,<br />
hunter-style chicken, braised<br />
lamb with sweet-potato crust,<br />
pot pies, soups, and a display<br />
case of salads and sides.<br />
ere’s also a kitchen rack of all-local condiments<br />
such as August’s Harvest garlic products<br />
from Gadshill, Bauman’s honey from<br />
Millbank, Orchard Hill jams from Wallenstein,<br />
and Savvy Chef sauces from London.<br />
ey do a brisk business in special main<br />
courses, side dishes and desserts at Christmas,<br />
Easter and anksgiving. “Everyone could use<br />
some help on the holidays,” she says.<br />
“Janet also does spontaneous specialty<br />
items, depending on the occasion, like duck<br />
cont and bison tortière, and her gravlax<br />
disappears in a day.” Rose shrugs, “If you’re<br />
not here, you miss it.”<br />
e beer and wine are also handpicked:<br />
St. omas’ Dead Elephant Ale is on tap and<br />
Stratford Pilsner is in the fridge; and eight<br />
Ontario wines — four red, four white — from<br />
Chateau de Charmes, Cave Spring, Henry of<br />
Pelham, Creekside, et al. “I try to span<br />
the range, from Gamay to Meritage in<br />
reds, Riesling to unoaked Chardonnay<br />
in whites,” says Ashworth. “But it also<br />
depends if I go down to Niagara and<br />
grab a case. Sometimes to the chagrin<br />
of my servers.”<br />
Spontaneity Rules<br />
e County Food Co. sta thrives on<br />
the spontaneity, actually. “is summer<br />
a blogger from the States came<br />
in search of the world’s best peanut<br />
butter sandwich,” says Rose. “Other<br />
restaurants sent him here, so I said,<br />
‘Okay, come back tomorrow and we’ll have<br />
something special for you.’<br />
“So he came back and he was blown away:<br />
a pita, stued with peanut<br />
butter, grilled vegetables<br />
and dried cranberries.”<br />
(“You should have seen the<br />
presentation!” Ashworth<br />
interjects.) “And he raved.<br />
Apparently it’s one of his<br />
most popular blog entries.”<br />
Ashworth’s ad-libbing<br />
skills served her when<br />
she was recently matched<br />
against Francisco Alejandri,<br />
graduate of the Stratford<br />
Chef School and owner of<br />
Toronto’s Agave Y Aguacate,<br />
in this year’s Savour Stratford<br />
Chef Challenge. “It was a<br />
one-hour chef smack-down,”<br />
Ashworth laughs. “e surprise<br />
ingredients were bacon, a quail’s egg, a<br />
partridge and a duck. at was fun.”<br />

A Taste for Everyone<br />
at Niko’s Eatery & Bar in Tillsonburg<br />
By CHRISTIE MASSÉ<br />
As a member of Oxford Fresh and Savour<br />
Oxfordlicious, Niko’s Eatery & Bar in<br />
Tillsonburg helps set the standard for<br />
local dining in Oxford County. is is<br />
the calibre of restaurant you might expect to nd<br />
in a booming metropolis like London, with all the<br />
right touches to be a contender in today’s competitive<br />
industry. In fact, in 2010, Niko’s received<br />
the Reader’s Choice Award for “Best Overall Restaurant”<br />
by SUN Media Readers.<br />
e décor at Niko’s is impressive. From curb<br />
appeal to semi-open concept<br />
kitchen, the use of various materials,<br />
the elements, lighting, and<br />
visual ow in its dining room<br />
create a stimulating atmosphere<br />
for its guests. With walls made<br />
of wine bottles, water, stainless<br />
steel, and what looks like molded<br />
copper, the visual interest for the<br />
onlooker is endless, and everything<br />
seems mise en place, to use<br />
a kitchen term.<br />
It is no surprise the servers<br />
at Niko’s have won awards for<br />
Outstanding Service: the sta is<br />
knowledgeable and enthusiastic<br />
of the food and wine, prompt, professional, and<br />
couldn’t be more personable.<br />
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Niko’s,<br />
and as a chef, good service is more than appreciated,<br />
but what truly tells the story of a restaurant<br />
is its food. With two Red Seal chefs in the kitchen,<br />
expectations are high. After a thorough read of the<br />
menu, they are met. I want to order everything.<br />
And given the surprising aordability of the items,<br />
I’m convinced I can. To prevent this from happening,<br />
I remove myself from the dinner menu and<br />
take a gander at the wine list. With features, standards,<br />
and vintages by the glass or bottle, there is<br />
a varietal, country, and price point for everyone.<br />
Following my wine order, I plan to revisit the dinner<br />
menu with a more rational eye, though the<br />
introduction of wine is deemed counterproductive<br />
to such intentions. To make the decision easier, my<br />

guest and I decide one of us<br />
will order a more traditional<br />
meal while the other will<br />
be adventurous. My fellow<br />
patron goes with the #1 Seller,<br />
Niko’s Calamari, and the<br />
Chipotle Peppercorn Rib Eye,<br />
while I sample their Avocado<br />

Chicken. I nd the Prosciutto Risotto<br />
accompanying the chicken dish strong<br />
enough to stand alone. Each aspect of<br />
this entrée presents a personality of its<br />
own, right down to the hand-cut, cinnamon-roasted<br />
beets and carrots.<br />
As owner Chris Kyriakopoulos<br />
explains over coee and dessert, he<br />
wanted to bring in chefs that can oer<br />
something for everyone, hence their<br />
slogan, “A Taste for Everyone.” eir<br />
menu is designed to cater both to those<br />
more comfortable with traditional<br />
items such as Caesar Salad, New York<br />
Steak, and Fish and Chips, as well as<br />
the more daring diner, interested in<br />
testing the avours of the world. For<br />
either classication, it is apparent that

serious contemplation<br />
and care is put into each<br />
dish, from preparation to<br />
presentation.<br />
In the kitchen, Head<br />
Chef Brandon Buckle<br />
is assisted by former<br />
Head Chef turned Sous-<br />
Chef Brian Rocco. Brian<br />
stepped down from the<br />
position after lling it<br />
for two years in order to<br />
teach at Fanshawe College,<br />
within their culinary<br />
program. With a philosophy<br />
heavy on simplicity<br />
and nished presentation,<br />
along with a erce<br />
combined palate, the pair<br />
can tackle the 180-seat<br />
restaurant while keeping<br />
the quality, freshness, and<br />
originality as high as the<br />
stacked onion rings that<br />
accompany the Rib Eye.<br />
Brandon, a Fanshawe<br />
graduate, previously<br />
ran the kitchen at e<br />
Clog & istle in Ingersoll<br />
and has been in his<br />
position now for over a<br />
year. Brandon’s food philosophy<br />
revolves around<br />
the concepts of simplicity<br />
and fusion. Brian,<br />
another Fanshawe grad,<br />
has worked in London<br />
kitchens such as e Best<br />
Western and Michael’s<br />
On e ames. When<br />
asked about his philosophy,<br />
he stresses avour<br />
and freshness. “We’re not<br />
afraid to season our food<br />
here. We want to bring out<br />
avours. Everything with<br />
the exception of maybe<br />
four items is made in house right down to the<br />
marshmallows in the S’more Brownie Sunday”—<br />
an impressive feat, based on the size<br />
and diversity of the menu.<br />
Considering that Chris owns nine businesses<br />
and runs from the arena to gymnastics<br />
meets and soccer practice with his<br />
kids, it is amazing that there isn’t a detail<br />
left unattended at Niko’s — evidence of a<br />

A Recipe for Social Enterprise<br />
London Training Centre is breaking new ground<br />
By KYM WOLFE<br />
If you’re looking for a good recipe for social<br />
enterprise, you might want to take a page<br />
out of London Training Centre’s book. is<br />
local non-prot has blended a variety of<br />
ingredients to create a unique food-centred<br />
enterprise. Here, revenues from food production,<br />
food processing, food retailing and<br />
food service are used to support skills development,<br />
employment opportunities and<br />
community engagement.<br />
“Food is a catalyst for social change<br />
because it engages people,” says David Corke,<br />
LTC’s executive director. Everything the<br />
agency cooks up will ultimately contribute to<br />
its three bottom lines: 1) to help people, 2) to<br />
have a positive impact in the community, and<br />
3) to generate enough revenue to accomplish<br />
the rst two.<br />
“e great thing about social enterprise<br />
is that if you break even, or only make a<br />
dollar, you are a success,” says Corke. LTC<br />
has a number of revenue-generating channels:<br />
Allumette, a banquet-stang agency;<br />
a professional training arm that provides<br />
instruction in everything from Safe Food<br />
Handling and Smart Serve to First Aid, CPR<br />
and computer training; and a new initiative,<br />
rental of their kitchen area to caterers and<br />
food artisans who need access to a licensed<br />
and inspected kitchen. LTC is also planning<br />
to launch a series of cooking classes<br />
in the spring of 2012, featuring a variety of<br />
guest chefs. All of the surplus funds gener-<br />

Director of the LTC, in<br />

№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
ated from the revenue-producing services<br />
are plowed back into Local Food Skills, the<br />
agency’s food training program.<br />
Relationships with community partners<br />
who are involved in dierent elements of the<br />
food chain also feed the Local Food Skills’<br />
bottom line. For example, making soup stock<br />
is a fundamental skill in the kitchen, says<br />
Corke. “Dan Murphy from Field Gate Organics<br />
supplies us with beef and chicken bones<br />
that we use to teach participants stock-making<br />
skills. Once the stock is made we freeze it,<br />
then send it back to Dan to retail, and we get<br />
a share of the prot. It’s a great private sector/<br />
non-prot sector partnership.”<br />
LTC was established 25 years ago to provide<br />
training and support to unemployed<br />
people interested in working in the food and<br />
hospitality industry. e food training program<br />
has evolved over time, and now reaches<br />
back into the supply chain to incorporate<br />
eld-to-table elements. “Beyond teaching<br />
food skills, we discuss how to connect with<br />
food,” says Steve James, the chef who runs the<br />
training kitchen. “We try to use traditionally<br />
and ethically grown food that we grow ourselves<br />
or that we purchase locally.”<br />
is past year some of the food used in the<br />
training program – tomatoes, leeks, carrots<br />
and other fresh produce – was grown in LTC’s<br />
ve acres of land on a farm on the outskirts of<br />
London, just west of Hyde Park. e tranquil<br />
country setting provided an ideal backdrop<br />

Both David<br />
Corke and<br />
Steve James<br />
have an interest<br />
in the local food<br />
movement, and<br />
they are excited<br />
about educating<br />
children<br />
about the food<br />

Small production growers have an important<br />
place in the local food supply chain,<br />
says Corke, and this year LTC has partnered<br />
with Farm Start to promote small-scale<br />
farming as a career option. LTC would also<br />
like to explore ways to ensure that small<br />
growers can access distribution systems<br />
beyond farmers’ markets to get their crops<br />
to local dinner tables. “Small food production<br />
and the development of a secondary<br />
food system will create economic energy to<br />
support those small operations and provide<br />
employment opportunities,” says Corke.<br />

A Taste of the Mountain<br />
Enjoy Gastronomic Heights in Whistler BC<br />
By JANE ANTONIAK<br />
It’s pretty safe to say that we all had our<br />
eyes on Whistler during the Winter<br />
Olympics in 2010 — ski racing, sledding,<br />
parties in the village square — it was all<br />
very exciting and so wonderfully Canadian.<br />
Now we get to enjoy all the upgrades to Whistler<br />
without the high costs and frenzy of the<br />
Olympics. With easy access from London to<br />
Vancouver on WestJet, you can depart here<br />
at 7 a.m. and nd yourself zipping along the<br />
jaw-dropping views of the Sea to Sky Highway<br />
from Vancouver to the mountains by the<br />
early afternoon. ere are direct shuttles, or<br />
you can rent a car to take in this “bucket list”<br />
drive, about two hours from door to door,<br />
depending on city trac out of Vancouver.<br />
Anymore, you don’t have to be a winter<br />
sports enthusiast to take in the glamour and<br />
fun of a mountain village. e slope-side<br />
restaurants, bars and accommodations have<br />
spectacular views — whether watching the<br />
skiers and boarders coming down or gazing up<br />
at the panoramic mountains. And anyone can<br />
take the gondola<br />
up Whistler<br />
and then<br />
jump aboard<br />
the Peak 2 Peak<br />
Gondola to<br />
Blackcomb,<br />
enjoying awesome<br />
views<br />
and a sense of<br />
gliding through<br />
the skies.<br />
Luckily, for<br />
foodies, Whistler<br />
is uniquely<br />
situated next<br />
to the lush and<br />
fertile growing<br />
region of Pemberton<br />
and<br />
just a stone’s<br />
throw from the<br />
№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
ocean. Whistler chefs are among the very<br />
few who can work in mountains and enjoy<br />
cooking with fresh, local products because<br />
of the unique growing conditions in nearby<br />
Pemberton and access to fresh seafood and<br />
sh. Combine that with wonderful BC wines<br />
and locally brewed beers, and Whistler<br />
becomes a welcome haven for high-end<br />
regional dining in a casual atmosphere.<br />
James Walt, Executive Chef at the celebrated<br />
Araxi restaurant, has been a pioneer in Whistler<br />
in expert combining of sustainable cooking<br />
with magnicent taste and presentation.<br />
Araxi was one of Whistler’s original restaurants,<br />
and Walt has brought it considerable<br />
fame with his connection to the Hell’s Kitchen<br />
TV show, as executive chef at the Canadian<br />
embassy in Rome, and for his cookbook, Araxi,<br />
which was a nalist for the James Beard Foundation<br />
award and the winner of a Gourmand<br />
World Cookbook Award as best Chef Book<br />
in Canada. Walt has been at Araxi since 1997<br />
and is a graduate of the Stratford Chef School.<br />
Whistler is spectacular, by day and by night
№ 32 | November/December 2011 www.<strong>eatdrink</strong>.ca 29<br />
Working at Araxi has allowed him to showcase<br />
his love of regional cooking — he now resides<br />
in Pemberton and has personal connections<br />
with his long-time producers/suppliers, especially<br />
North Arm Farm near Mount Currie. is<br />
past summer, Walt began the North Arm Farm<br />
long table suppers, where 160 people would<br />
gather at one long outdoor table to share a<br />
communal meal from big platters — a style<br />
he admired in Italy. While Araxi is far more<br />
upscale, with white table cloths and seating<br />
for 155, Walt’s playful<br />
approach is evident to<br />
diners who can look into the open kitchen or<br />
sit at two chef’s tables. Whether it’s Qualicum<br />
Beach scallops or Pemberton potatoes, guests<br />
can expect gently handled dishes with a minimalist<br />
approach, yet bursting in avour.<br />
“I’m totally happy here,” he enthuses.<br />
“We’re pretty fortunate. I grew up in the<br />
Ottawa Valley, in a farming community,<br />
and I just love Pemberton. e farmers have<br />
become my friends, our kids go to school<br />
together, we feel connected. I now have ve<br />
farms growing just for us.”<br />
Walt can take sweet corn and basil and<br />
create a delicious soup that you swear is<br />
cream-lled, but is just corn, basil and onion<br />
made from a stock of boiled corn cobs and<br />
only a half cup of cream for 16 servings. Simplicity<br />
rules at Araxi, service is attentive, and<br />
the place is booked solid from December to<br />
Easter. www.araxi.com<br />
A short walk from the centre of the village<br />
is a newer restaurant, Alta Bistro, which is<br />
the baby brother of Araxi — and a lot easier<br />
on the pocketbook — and it’s also dedicated<br />
to sustainability and quality preparations.<br />
“We’re starting to feel like we’re a bit established,”<br />
says co-owner Eric Grith, who has<br />
lived in Whistler for 32 years. With a small but<br />
interesting menu that features three-course<br />
dinners for $29 or $39, Alta also draws from<br />
local producers while presenting in the style<br />
of a classic European bistro. eir cheese board<br />
and charcuterie board (with meats from Nita<br />
Lake Lodge) are their signatures, and so are<br />
their attitudes towards the environment —<br />
they create their own carbonated water, using<br />
“Whistler water,” which all locals rave about,<br />
ltering it on site, and adding sparkle through<br />
the Vivleau System. ey pride themselves on<br />
using all parts of the animal, no plastic wrap,<br />
only recycled plastic containers and induction<br />
cooking. “Food can be tasty and not expensive,”<br />
Bearfoot Bistro Chef Melissa Craig Scallops with Corn, Spicy Sausage<br />
and Mustard Vinaigrette,<br />
Bearfoot Bistro’s Wine Cellar<br />
by Araxi Restaurant Chef James Walt<br />
says Grith. “We felt there<br />
was a gap between highend<br />
and franchise-food restaurants. We want<br />
to promote excellent food at a good value for<br />
locals and guests.” www.altabistro.com<br />
For the full charcuterie experience, you<br />
need to venture out of the main Whistler village<br />
to Nita Lake Lodge, located adjacent to<br />
the Whistler railway station in the area known<br />
as Creekside. Meats are hung to cure/dry in<br />
open refrigerators, and guests in the Cure<br />
Lounge are encouraged to try such delicacies<br />
as pickled veal tongue (“You don’t get freaked<br />
out?” asks Cu as he insists I try some) and<br />
wild boar head while sipping on signature<br />
cocktails such as Half Asleep in Frog Pyjamas,<br />
a Smoky Robinson, or a Red Chihuahua, all<br />
crafted by Hailey Pasemko, Commander-in-<br />
Chief of beverages. She makes her own bitters,<br />
syrups and infusions, creating a beverage<br />
culture, and pairs cocktails with charcuterie<br />
and other bar foods, including homemade<br />
potato chips with Pemberton potatoes or succulent<br />
chicken wings — a favourite of Executive<br />
Chef Tim Cu. From Saskatchewan,<br />
Cu knows a thing or two about growing<br />
foods, and he personally cares for the rooftop<br />
organic garden — its seven plots include<br />
Saskatoon berries, onions, lettuce and herbs,<br />
some of which end up in Pasemko’s cocktails.<br />
“I didn’t move here to ski. It’s a personal<br />
challenge to revitalize this place. We do<br />
everything ourselves and we utilize the area
30 www.<strong>eatdrink</strong>.ca<br />
around us, the ocean and Pemberton, and<br />
we cook within the seasons.” e two play o<br />
each other well – both young, yet experienced<br />
and thrilled to be working together at the<br />
revamped Nita Lake Lodge. Denitely a great<br />
spot for Happy Hour away from the throngs of<br />
partyers in Whistler. www.nitalakelodge.com<br />
If it’s wine you’re looking for, then a<br />
must-stop is the Bearfoot Bistro, home of<br />
the 12,000-bottle wine cellar. A short ight<br />
of stairs down from the main dining room<br />
takes you into the awesome experience of<br />
being surrounded by wine. Occasionally,<br />
private parties are held in the cellar and sta<br />
enjoy having guests “sabre” a bottle of bubbly<br />
— remove the cork with a sword — the<br />
ultimate party game! Suce it to say you can<br />
order anything you want from the cellar to<br />
be served upstairs in the dining room and<br />
paired with delicious oerings from Chef<br />
Melissa Craig — one of the few women chefs<br />
in the area. “It’s kind of a playground for<br />
me,” she says and she means it. Salmon tartare<br />
was infused<br />
with pop rocks candies to create create a surprising<br />
crackle in your mouth. A corn salad included<br />
popcorn in the mixture. And ice cream is<br />
made tableside with liquid nitrogen and<br />
served with your own choices of toppings,<br />
including maple syrup liquor — incredibly<br />
creamy and tasty!<br />
At one point during your evening at Bearfoot<br />
Bistro, you may be asked to stand up,<br />
don a large, fur-trimmed parka, and head<br />
into their ice room, where you can sample<br />
some of their 48 vodkas that are chilling<br />
in the ice walls at -28°C. Scott Barber, the<br />
“vodka director,” studied at Fanshawe College<br />
and is from Owen Sound. He gets a big<br />
kick out of walking visitors through a vodka<br />
sampling – including peppery and sweetinfused<br />
vodkas — all consumed neat and<br />
chilled, of course. A super warm-up on a<br />
cold night! www.bearfootbistro.com<br />

Westin has the Aubergine Grille, a 150-seat ne<br />
dining restaurant with an impressive outside<br />
patio that features gourmet sandwiches and<br />
impressive views. Its neighbour is the Hilton,<br />

steps from the gondola. Inside the Hilton is the<br />
Cinnamon Bear Bar, a longtime watering hole<br />
and sports bar enjoyed by generations of visitors<br />
to Whistler. Adjacent to it is the Cinnamon<br />
Bear Grille, serving weekend brunch buets<br />
sure to kick-start any day of activity.<br />
e best part of<br />
Whistler is that it’s<br />
a pedestrian village,<br />
so you can nd ways<br />
to burn o all the<br />
calories by strolling<br />
the streets and taking<br />
the short walk over to<br />
Blackcomb village. Nearby hiking trails oer<br />
geocaching treks, and you can even go ziptrekking<br />
year-round — an exhilarating way<br />
to tour the mountain while ziplining over<br />
creeks and tree tops. Aside from the thrill of<br />
skiing down the Dave Murray Downhill and<br />
creating your own Olympic moment, ziplining<br />
at Whistler is a must for thrill seekers —<br />
or anyone brave enough to step o the edge<br />
of a platform! Safe and very fun, it provides a<br />
unique gliding experience in the mountains.<br />
www.ziptrek.com<br />
Oh ,yes, of course there is the skiing —<br />
something to t in between meals! With<br />
an El Niña year predicted (means loads<br />
of snow) and skiing from late November<br />
through past Easter, Whistler is our sure-bet<br />
destination, and one that Canadians can be<br />
very proud to call our own!<br />

The Verandah Café has always been as much about the party<br />
as it is the café. The 25-year-old landmark, legendary for its<br />
high-spirited eccentricity, has closed. “Dear friends, family and<br />
devoted patrons of 25 years: It is true; the Verandah Café has come<br />
to an end. Mostly not by our choice,” stated a message posted on<br />
the restaurant’s Facebook page by proprietors Wally Downham<br />
and Steven Moeller. Although The Verandah was popular, and<br />
Downham and Moeller paid the rent, there was an ongoing issue<br />
with the owner of the building at 546 Dundas St. East, reportedly<br />
related to mortgage payments.<br />
“We had been locked out ... and cannot see a future at this point,<br />
so we have taken the drastic step to sadly hang up our hats and put<br />
our feet up until we nd a new chapter in our lives, wherever it may<br />
be,” they wrote. The sudden news surprised their large and devoted<br />
clientele, who patronized The Verandah not just for the prix xe<br />
menu but to unwind and enjoy the nightly revelry.<br />

at the market selling celery, which was new to this area. He then<br />
opened a market restaurant where he made donuts, and nally<br />
opened a cheese shop in 1959. His son Paul ran Paul’s Place deli<br />
in the old market building and started Hasbeans in 1969.<br />
Fast-forward to present day, and the Smith family market<br />
tradition continues. Paul’s daughter Debbie McMillan and<br />
grandson Joel McMillan also work at Hasbeans, a popular coee<br />
shop in the market. Grandson Dan Smith and his wife Glenda<br />
have also contributed to the family’s market tradition, taking over<br />
operation of the cheese shop from grandfather Paul. Glenda Smith<br />
currently operates Smith Cheese, with help from their daughter<br />
Danielle. She also runs Glenda’s, a popular stall oering a wide<br />
selection of dips, sauces, olives and other tasty treats.<br />

was out of town and unable to attend and passed along this<br />
message: “I’d like to apologize to Paul for not being here while he is<br />
being honoured. Without Paul’s help, I am 100% sure that I would<br />
not be in the restaurant and hospitality business today. I knew<br />
nothing about product, suppliers, costing and all the other tidbits<br />
about running a food operation, until Paul patiently mentored<br />
me in all aspects of the game. (A lot of my customers over the<br />
years would still say I still know nothing.) Without Paul’s help and<br />
encouragement, it just wouldn’t have happened for me. And what<br />
did Paul ask of me in return? Absolutely nothing. While I wanted to<br />
pay him for all his help, he refused to take anything and I realized<br />
that sometimes the greatest reward is knowing you did the right<br />
thing. For this, I am unbelievably grateful to him, and it’s a lesson<br />
that I’ll never forget. Thanks Paul, for all you and the family have<br />
done for Covent Garden Market, Downtown London, and me.”<br />
The Springs is London’s newest and highly anticipated gourmet<br />

focal point and ambience to the entrance.<br />
“You know it’s a good party when you end up in the<br />
kitchen,” says Wolwowicz, a proponent of the open kitchen. In<br />
collaboration with the Owens, Wolwowicz helped design every<br />
detail of the restaurant and kitchen to create a welcoming and<br />
accessible environment. There is an additional prep/pastry<br />
kitchen in the basement.<br />
A “local” culinary ambassador with over 20 years of<br />

his capability, with nely tuned instincts, skill, dedication,<br />

e <strong>eatdrink</strong> Epicure’s Gift Guide<br />
By SUE SUTHERLAND-WOOD<br />
Buying a present for a foodie can be a<br />
daunting experience, given the vast<br />
array of products on the market.<br />
Quality, functionality, and a unique<br />
feature or two are all top concerns, since<br />
most foodies are discriminating by nature.<br />
Taking all this into consideration, here are<br />
some holiday suggestions spanning a variety<br />
of budgets, from some of our local sources.<br />
Every cook needs a place to store knives that<br />
keeps them close to hand<br />
and safe. e Bodum<br />
Bistro Knife Block does<br />
both — as well as being<br />
attractive and easy<br />
to clean. Tiny plastic<br />
strands within the block<br />
also allow favourite<br />
knives to be snugly<br />
inserted anywhere<br />
on the block — no<br />
need for guesswork.<br />
(Knives not included in the<br />
price). $49.95 at Bradshaws,<br />
129 Ontario Street, Stratford, www.bradshawscanada.com<br />
e Trudeau Wine Aerator (with an impressive<br />
ve-year warranty) improves the taste<br />
and bouquet of any wine and does so one<br />
glass at a time. With a simple transparent<br />
device that ts easily<br />
onto the bottle,<br />
wine is aerated<br />
both in the bottle<br />
and then again during<br />
pouring. is is<br />
a sleek and classy<br />
gift that ensures<br />
one never again has<br />
to wait for the wine<br />
to breathe.<br />
$24.99 at Foodies of Grand<br />
Bend, 13 Main Street West,<br />

Make your own carbonated drinks<br />
at home with a streamlined elegant<br />
unit called SodaStream.<br />
(ere are various styles to<br />
choose from, some with<br />
glass carafes.) e list of<br />
avours available is very<br />
impressive — from Diet<br />
Cola to Green Tea Pomegranate<br />
Peach. Fizziness<br />
and sweetness can be<br />
adjusted to suit your own<br />
preference. Adding a<br />
splash of plain soda water<br />
to fruit juices provides<br />
the perfect virtuous “pop”<br />
for children. Great to have<br />
on hand for holiday cocktails, too! e<br />
SodaStream also packs environmental heft<br />
since it sidesteps the production, storage<br />
and disposal of all those plastic bottles.<br />

Billed as an “immersion blender,” the<br />
Swiss-made Bamix is so much more.<br />
Unlike many food processors and blenders,<br />

tough meat fibres, this is the<br />
favourite of Gordon Ramsay,<br />
who can be seen on You-<br />
Tube heaping (profanityfree!)<br />

doesn’t impress, there<br />
is a ten-year (limited)<br />

BEER MATTERS<br />

Battle of the West Coast IPAs<br />
Ontario Has Embraced Intense India Pale Ales<br />
By THE MALT MONK<br />
As we move from late fall into<br />
winter, I’m still enjoying the fall<br />
season fest beers in local circulation.<br />
We have a great selection at<br />
the LCBO, as well as from our local crafters,<br />
who are putting their twist on the traditional<br />
beers of the fall season — Oktoberfest Marzens,<br />
Amber Pumpkin Ales, Bocks, Stouts<br />
and Porters. I’m also in the midst of brewing<br />
my own special ale for the winter season,<br />
as well as undergoing my side-by-side taste<br />
tests of the West Coast India Pale Ales that<br />
have ooded the local market.<br />
When I say “ooding” the market, I mean<br />
it as a positive development. Craft beer<br />
fanciers can’t get<br />
enough of a good<br />
thing. For years,<br />
when the great<br />
West Coast IPAs<br />
rst exploded<br />
on the craft<br />
beer scene,<br />
we here in<br />
Ontario were<br />
missing out.<br />
Agents were<br />
too timid to<br />
import, and<br />
local crafters<br />
were too conservative<br />
to brew such an intense, huge-<br />
avoured ale — afraid of the consequence<br />
of consumer rejection, perhaps. Fortunately,<br />
the market was always here for intense<br />
IPAs — it just needed to be tapped. At any<br />
rate, the local market is now awash in this<br />
big hoppy ale style from local and import<br />
crafters, and the local craft beer culture is<br />
lapping it up.<br />
e West Coast Style of India Pale Ale<br />
First o, it’s probably worth mentioning how<br />
a West Coast IPA diers from traditional IPA,<br />
and how it evolved into its own discrete style.<br />
India Pale Ale evolved in Britain in the eighteenth<br />
century as a stronger, well-hopped<br />
export ale for the Indian subcontinent. West<br />
Coast India Pale Ale (WCIPA) is a more<br />
robust modern American version of this historical<br />
English style, brewed using American<br />
ingredients and boundary-pushing attitude.<br />
WCIPAs are brewed with hop cultivars<br />
developed and grown in the Pacic<br />
Northwest hop-growing regions of<br />
Yakama and Willamette valleys. e<br />
recipes usually include a blend of PNW hop<br />
varieties such as Cascade, Chinook, Centennial,<br />
Columbus, Simcoe, Amarillo, Tomahawk,<br />
Warrior, and Nugget. ese varieties<br />
impart the grapefruit, orange, citrus, lychee,<br />
apricot, mango and piney aromas/tastes<br />
unique to WCIPAs. West Coast brewers also<br />
add hops to their IPAs in at least four of the<br />
brewing stages — the boil, hopback infusion,<br />
dry hopped in fermenting, conditioning<br />
and kegging. As a result WCIPAs run<br />
about 60–70 IBUs in bitterness.<br />
Add to this a rich mix of semi- and fully<br />
caramelized specialty malts suited to a<br />
high original gravity wort from single-temperature<br />
infusion mashing, and<br />
you can start to understand the<br />
unique nature of the WCIPA —<br />
big hop presence (60–70 IBU)<br />
balanced with rich<br />
malting. It has an<br />
intense aromatic<br />
olfactory sensation,<br />
with pungent<br />
tones of grapefruitcitrus-mango<br />
and<br />
a toee undertone<br />
from a cara-malt<br />
base. e colour<br />
ranges from deep gold<br />
to burnished copper,<br />
and the huge puy<br />
meringue-like caps<br />
last well, with a rich
48 www.<strong>eatdrink</strong>.ca<br />
sticky/chewy mouth feel. e general avour<br />
prole of WCIPA has big toee-caramel malts<br />
that appear in the front, then this rich malting<br />
is quickly eclipsed by ample hopping, giving a<br />
resinous-fruity complexity on the palate. is<br />
is followed by a long nish, where maltiness<br />
diminishes, and bittering and drying increase<br />
to a nice sharp hop bite at the end.<br />
Disciples of the WCIPA loved this combination<br />
of fragrant hoppy-citrus-toee brew<br />
so much they created an even more intense<br />
version they call the “double” or “imperial”<br />
IPA. e imperial version of the WCIPA<br />
usually starts by doubling the malt and hop<br />
bill of an IPA recipe. is results in a highergravity<br />
ale that is better attenuated and more<br />
intense in hop presence. It is usually dryer<br />
and more bitter than a regular WCIPA, but<br />
with all the great pine-mango-grapefruittoee<br />
aromas and tastes.<br />

I can condently recommend any of these ne<br />
crafted West Coast IPAs. I hope you have the<br />
opportunity to try most of them to discover<br />
your favourites. And if you’re buying these<br />
beers in their bottled version, always get the<br />
freshest samples available so you can appreciate<br />
the bright citrusy sunny hoppy character<br />
of these intense brews. e hop alphas, which<br />
give that bright aroma and sharp bite, tend to<br />
diminish with shelf time. is is less important<br />
with the imperial or double IPAs, as they tend<br />
to cellar well, usually bringing the malts a bit<br />
more forward with age.<br />
Malt Monk’s Pick ‘O’ the Month<br />
Central City Red Racer IPA — LCBO 256594<br />
Red Racer is a multi-award-winning IPA that<br />
has spearheaded the West Coast invasion of<br />
the Ontario crafted IPA market. is Surrey,<br />
BC, brewer has captured the essence of the<br />
West Coast IPA style, and Red Racer is also<br />
popular in its home province. Red Racer is<br />
rich in West Coast hops, lush in pungent<br />
citrus-fruity aroma, and ush with micro-<br />
IPA avour and body. is is among Canada’s<br />
rst WCIPAs to meet the big US micro<br />
brewed WCIPAs head on and win in local<br />
markets. Try one — you won’t regret it.<br />

Brick Brewing seems to have pulled o a bit<br />
of a brewing coup by unexpectedly producing<br />
one of the more innovative seasonal<br />
crafted beers of the year. Brick Waterloo<br />

amber lager with some<br />
unique twists. ey use ve<br />
specialty malts (whiskey<br />

barley malts) blended with<br />
earthy spicy Hallertau hops,<br />
then oak-age the beer. e<br />
result is a reddish-orange<br />
craft lager resembling a<br />
Marzen, with a robust<br />
spicy-toee-herbal (lightly<br />
smoky) avour that goes<br />
dry in the nish. is is the<br />

Local and Seasonal<br />
Ontario Wines for Holiday Entertaining<br />
By RICK VANSICKLE<br />
The holiday season is fast approaching<br />
and we’re busy shopping, planning<br />
meals, and mapping out just<br />
how we’re going to entertain all our<br />
friends and family. It’s our favourite time<br />
of the year, when joy and warmth ll our<br />
homes, and good food, (perhaps too much<br />
of it), is a big part of the festivities.<br />
Wine is a special part of most holiday<br />
entertaining. Plan carefully — the last thing<br />
you want to do is leave it until the last minute,<br />
when the shelves at the LCBO are picked bare<br />
and all the good stu is long gone.<br />
Here are some choices and styles of<br />
Ontario wines that pair perfectly with the<br />
season. Most of these wines should be available<br />
now, but always check on the LCBO<br />
website at www.lcbo.com for availability at<br />
your closest store.<br />
It’s a good idea to have some bubbly on<br />
hand during the holidays. It’s perfect as<br />
a welcoming drink or to toast family and<br />
friends. e great thing about Ontario<br />
sparkling wines is they are generally low in<br />
alcohol and always high in acidity, which<br />
means refreshing. Here are a few choices:<br />
Peller Estates Signature Series Ice Cuvée<br />
Rosé ($35 and also available at Vineyards<br />
Estate Wine stores) — Peller has perfected<br />
the art of blending in a dosage of about 15%<br />
of Vidal and Cabernet Franc Icewine to<br />
traditional method sparkling wine (made<br />
with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Cab Franc<br />
grapes). is is such a magical wine with<br />
citrus, strawberry, watermelon, raspberry,<br />
spice, honey and toast on the nose. Simply<br />
delicious in the mouth with a sweet, vigorous<br />
bead of bubbles, lush red fruits of raspberry<br />
and strawberry, and just a kiss of sweetness<br />
to balance out the acidity.<br />
Angels Gate Archangel Pinot Noir Rosé<br />
2008 ($25) — Made in the traditional Champagne<br />
method, with a strawberry-cherry<br />
mousse nose with added yeast and fresh-<br />
№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
ness. Lovely<br />
berries on the<br />
palate, fresh and<br />
clean with a ne,<br />
vigorous bead of<br />
bubbles.<br />
Vineland<br />
Estates Brut<br />
Reserve 2008<br />
($23) — A<br />
nose of<br />
toast, citrus<br />
and apple,<br />
with a mousse<br />
that’s tight and lively. Notes<br />
of tangerine, citrus and toasted<br />
vanilla in the mouth. It’s a blend of Pinot<br />
Meunier and Pinot Blanc.<br />
Gewurztraminer is not a wine for everybody.<br />
But it sure goes great with the turkey<br />
dinner. If you’re looking for something just a<br />
little dierent this season, try these:<br />
Jackson-Triggs Silver Series Gewurztraminer<br />
2010 ($19, and also available at Wine<br />
Rack stores) — Old World style of Gewurz,<br />
with a pretty potpourri nose, grapefruit and<br />
lychee notes. It’s soft, with a touch of honey<br />
on the palate and ripe grapefruit, cloves and<br />
other exotic spices.<br />
Stratus Gewurztraminer 2009 ($32, Nov.<br />
26 at Vintages) — A wonderful example of<br />
this beautiful, spicy white variety. e nose<br />
shows sweet grapefruit, cloves, nutmeg,<br />
honeysuckle, lychee nut and lemon cream.<br />
It’s round and voluptuous on the palate with<br />
an oily texture, ripe fruits and gingerbreadclove<br />
spices. Best of all, it has retained a<br />
healthy core of acidity that shows on the<br />
nish, inviting sip after sip.<br />
Chardonnay — it’s always smart to have<br />
some on hand. It has wide appeal, matches<br />
to food nicely, and is a great sipping wine:<br />
Le Clos Jordanne Talon Ridge Vineyard
№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
Chardonnay 2009 ($40) — is is the rst<br />
Chardonnay to be released from the 2009<br />
vintage of Le Clos Jordanne. e nose shows<br />
intriguing gunint, wood smoke and mineral<br />
notes with poached pear, citrus, and a touch<br />
of honey. A core of pear-lemon fruit in the<br />
mouth with stony minerality, vanilla-nut<br />
and toasty oak notes, and wonderful acidity<br />
that washes over the palate. is would be a<br />
great gift for someone special.<br />
Flat Rock Cellars Estate Chardonnay<br />
2008 ($17) — is is one heck of a chardonnay<br />
for the price. e nose oozes minerality,<br />
tropical fruit, and nuanced oak and spice.<br />
Lovely in the mouth with bright tropical<br />
fruits accented with citrus and minerals.<br />
In a lot of ways, Pinot Noir is the perfect<br />
holiday wine. It’s generally fruity, light in<br />
weight and body, avourful, the perfect<br />
match with Christmas turkey, and most<br />
people like it. Niagara makes some great<br />
Pinot, but here are three that are just right:<br />
Coyote’s Run Red Paw Vineyard Pinot<br />
Noir 2009 ($25) — is single-vineyard<br />
Red Paw Pinot shows highly expressive<br />
creamy cherry fruit, spice, toasty cedar bits,<br />

the cherry pie avours on the palate with<br />
touches of raspberry fruit, cedar, spice and<br />
roasted herbs.<br />
Flat Rock Cellars Gravity Pinot Noir<br />
2009 ($30, Vintages, Nov. 12) —e Gravity<br />
delivers a seductive nose of cherries, plums,<br />
earth, cloves, and other oak-inuenced<br />
spices. On the palate, it explodes with black<br />
cherry, raspberry, currants and sweet plums<br />
to go with ne tannins, minerality, toasty<br />
spices, and layers of complexity through the<br />
nish. Drink now or hold up to ve years.<br />
Lailey Vineyard Pinot Noir 2009 ($20)<br />
— Even this entry-level Pinot, a blend of<br />
several vineyards, is a superb example of<br />
Lailey’s craftsmanship with this grape. A<br />
nose of cherry-cranberry fruit, cloves and<br />
vanilla. Again, classic Pinot texture in the<br />
mouth with gorgeous red fruits, and generously<br />
spiced from sip to swallow.<br />
Riesling serves a lot of purposes. It’s low<br />
in alcohol, tastes great, goes perfectly with<br />
turkey and all the xings, and is relatively<br />
cheap. I always have Riesling on hand for<br />
friends and family:<br />
№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
Fielding Estate Riesling 2010 ($19) —<br />
is is Fielding’s entry-level Riesling, with a<br />
nose of sweet citrus, lime, peach, and a hint<br />
of minerality. Decent acid with lovely, fresh<br />
avours in the mouth.<br />
Vineland Estate St. Urban Vineyard<br />
Riesling 2009 ($20) — A nose of zesty,<br />
mineral rich citrus goodness that carries to<br />
the palate in a pure expression of sweet-tart<br />
citrus, minerals and racy acidity. Vineland<br />
also makes a semi-dry Riesling that’s very<br />
good, for only $13.<br />
Henry of Pelham Speck Family Reserve<br />
Riesling 2008 ($30) — is is a thrilling wine<br />
that will develop with ten years or more in the<br />
bottle. Already it shows wonderful minerals,<br />
concentrated fruits and structure. While still<br />
tight on the nose, the palate shows structure,<br />
juicy citrus fruits, a rm core of acidity, and<br />
tension. is is a Riesling worthy of a great<br />
gift for the wine lover on your list.<br />
Consider some interesting reds. Do you<br />
have a wine lover on your Christmas list<br />

can buy by the case that all your red-wine<br />
lovers will like:<br />
Stratus Red 2008 ($44, Vintages Nov.<br />
12) — is has a beautiful nose of cassis,<br />
raspberry, red currants, tobacco leaf, cedar<br />
and vanilla wood. It is youthful in the mouth<br />
with evident tannins (so cellar a bit to<br />
round things out), but with succulent fruit,<br />
savoury-earthy notes, integrated spices and<br />
vanilla through a long nish. Drink now with<br />
food or hold in cellar for a few years.<br />
Vineland Estates Cabernet Franc 2010<br />
($13) — is entry-level Cab Franc is simply<br />
gorgeous and highly attractive at this price.<br />
It is all about the fruit on the nose. Juicy, ripe<br />
cassis, currants, hints of cherry, raspberry<br />
and tobacco, with just a subtle hint of wood<br />
spice. It gushes on the palate with deliciously<br />
bold fruits, impeccable balance and<br />
smooth tannins through the long nish. You<br />
can cellar it for ten years.<br />

Creating a New Wine Region<br />
Huron County Wine Development<br />
By JANE ANTONIAK<br />
The Old World adage, “If you can<br />
grow peaches, you can grow<br />
grapes” — and thus, make wine<br />
— is about to be tested in Huron<br />
County. After three years of soil and climate<br />
testing, investors and the economic development<br />
department, supported by wine<br />
industry experts, are poised to start the rst<br />
planting of grape vines, which could lead to<br />
a new wine/tourism industry in Huron.<br />
“ere’s a whole area along the shores<br />
of Lake Huron where they typically grew<br />
fruit, peach trees, a century ago,” says Mike<br />
Pullen, Economic Development Ocer<br />
for Huron County. “ey stopped growing<br />
peaches for economic reasons and replaced<br />
it with growing owers. e zone runs from<br />
Port Albert to Grand Bend along a natural<br />
ridge, which is three to four kilometres wide.<br />
e height of the ridge reaches 500 feet,<br />
which is higher than the Niagara escarpment<br />
and so it creates the same mezzo- and<br />
micro-climate as Niagara.”<br />
Leading experts have been studying the<br />
area along the shoreline to see if the colder<br />
Huron climate would hinder the growth of<br />
grape vines. According to Richard Fitoussi,<br />
a retired partner in e Little Inn of Bayeld<br />
and a lover of wine and Huron County, there<br />
are new root stalks and grafts designed to<br />
survive cold climates.<br />
“I have a lot of friends<br />
in the wine world, and<br />
they’ve always said, ‘Where<br />
you can grow peaches,<br />
you can make decent<br />
wine’ so that stuck in my<br />
head. I was at the Bayeld<br />
Garden Club when the<br />
owner of Huron Ridge<br />
(greenhouses) gave a presentation<br />
that prompted<br />
me to visit his operation. On the walls were<br />
old photos of peach orchards in this area.<br />
From then on, the ball just got rolling. But<br />
№ 32 | November/December 2011<br />
we wanted to take it slow and do all our<br />
research rst before talking with investors.”<br />
Working with the Huron Business Development<br />
Corp, local municipalities, and the<br />
tourism and agriculture industries in Huron,<br />
a new group called the Huron Shore Viticulture<br />
Network was formed this past summer.<br />
e ultimate goal is to develop 100 acres for<br />
growing grapes, which would lead to 300<br />
tonnes of production and the creation of the<br />
Huron Shores VQA (Vintners Quality Alliance)<br />
designation — the same as has been<br />
done in Niagara, Lake Erie North Shore,<br />
Pelee Island and Prince Edward County.<br />
Mike Pullen says their research has led<br />
them to create a list of recommended varieties<br />
of grapes that could be successfully<br />
Exact locations remain guarded secrets, but after<br />
extensive soil and weather testing, investors are<br />
poised to launch Huron County’s rst winery.

of Baco Noir, Chambourcin, Frontenac,<br />
Marechal Foch and Marquette. White<br />
Hybrids would be Frontenac Gris, L’Acadie<br />

are also looking at the possibility of red<br />

What excites Pullen and Fitoussi is the<br />
long-term goal of creating a wine route<br />
through the county to individual vineyards/<br />
wineries, each with uniquely Huron County-<br />
named brands of wine. “A wine region spurs<br />
on greater investment in a spin-o tourism<br />
industry” says Pullen. Fitoussi is also hoping<br />
that his home county will then develop art<br />
routes and a cheese industry.<br />
e project is now into Phase ree, fol-<br />
lowing three years of collecting data from<br />
three weather towers and soil samples — all<br />
of which have shown positive results for the<br />
growing of grapes in sandy loams and clay,<br />
high in calcium carbonate and rich in more<br />
than 29 minerals needed for the develop-<br />
ment of vineyards. “e homework has been<br />
done for climate and soil, and we also have<br />
an existing tourism infrastructure, including<br />
ne dining, accommodations and a beauti-<br />
ful lakeshore to go hand-in-hand with win-<br />
eries,” says Pullen.<br />
While the exact locations of the rst plant-<br />
ings are not being revealed to avoid land<br />
price gouging, both Fitoussi and Pullen<br />
indicate that “signicant” work is planned<br />
for the spring, with the rst vintage possibly<br />
being made in 2015. Pullen says that a “lead-<br />
ing viticulture consultant with international<br />
experience” is on board and that the “largest<br />
wine nursery in Canada” is working with<br />
investors now.<br />
“When one starts, many will follow,” says<br />
Fitoussi with a smile. For him, it will mean<br />
the culmination of a lifelong dream to see<br />
quality wine made in his own county, and<br />
the development of a richer art and tourism<br />
community to enjoy in his retirement.<br />

I<br />
was just reading through the Food<br />
section of our local newspaper, which<br />
featured a recipe for a honey cake<br />
to be made for Rosh Hashanah, the<br />
Jewish New Year celebration. e author<br />
acknowledged that nobody really enjoys it,<br />
but noted that the cake is part of a<br />
very old tradition, which is apparently<br />
reason enough to go through<br />
the motions of making it. It seemed<br />
to her that to not oer honey cake<br />
would somehow be sacrilegious,<br />
even if it went stale in the cupboard<br />
after the considerable eort<br />
required to bake it.<br />
e Christmas fruitcake has also<br />
suered a serious decline in its ability to<br />
excite party guests, and we’ve all heard jokes<br />
pertaining to its regifting or its potential use<br />
as a paperweight. But fruitcake too, like the<br />
Jewish honey cake, continues to have its place<br />
during the holiday season, like it or lump it!<br />
at recipe got me thinking of some of the<br />
traditional dishes that I have come across:<br />
some great, some horrible, that continue to<br />
grace the tables of families across the country<br />
on their special feast days.<br />
I moved to California some years ago,<br />
and the rst American anksgiving I<br />
was invited to was at the home of a friend<br />
who had grown up in Georgia. One of her<br />
anksgiving Day “must-haves” was a cornbread<br />
stung. It had the visual appeal of a<br />
pasty porridge and a taste equally as bland,<br />
but despite another guest bringing to the<br />
potluck a savoury sausage stung, the table<br />
wasn’t complete for the host without her<br />
family “go-to” dish.<br />
Other sides that arrived that year (and<br />
every year to follow) were the green bean casserole<br />
(beans smothered in cream of mushroom<br />
soup, topped with canned fried onion<br />
rings) and sweet potatoes with marshmallows<br />
broiled on top. No doubt these dishes<br />
were great hits in the ’70s before nutrition<br />
became a serious study of interest, but people<br />
continue to prepare them out of nostalgia,<br />

Comfort Food & Holiday Traditions<br />
By CAROLYN MCDONELL<br />
completely dismissing the not-so-new knowledge<br />
that fresh ingredients are really much<br />
healthier for you and your heart! It seems<br />
nutritional value and good health practices<br />
go out the window with the desire to uphold<br />
the memories of old and the comforts of<br />
foods from our youth. Many people<br />
are more than willing to have<br />
their sodium and caloric intake<br />
skyrocket for the day, rather than<br />
leave their much-loved recipes a<br />
memory of the past — despite having<br />
to shop for many ingredients in<br />
the canned food aisle.<br />
Perhaps much of this has to do<br />
with the fact that many people are<br />
not lucky enough to be sharing their special<br />
days with their families and old friends, and<br />
somehow creating the same meal their relatives<br />
are making (and have made for decades)<br />
brings back many fond memories and makes<br />
them feel just a bit closer to home.<br />
My family was invited to a neighbour’s<br />
house for Christmas a few years back and<br />
the menu consisted of prime rib of beef,<br />
mushroom risotto and salad. Blasphemy!<br />
I had grown up with turkey, ham, mashed<br />
potatoes and all the xings, and this, albeit<br />
delicious sounding menu, just seemed<br />
wrong! I brought a sweet potato casserole, a<br />
cranberry cake my mother always makes for<br />
Christmas Eve, and my father’s favourite: a<br />
mincemeat pie. No doubt they didn’t lend<br />
sophistication to the prepared culinary feast,<br />
but at least I felt a little closer to my roots!<br />
e only thing that was missing was the<br />
dessert platter, containing a delicious assortment<br />
of squares and the Christmas cake my<br />
mother labours over every year. It’s never<br />
something that I enthusiastically reach for,<br />
but there is much comfort in the fact that it’s<br />
always there! Something like family ...<br />

Chips and dip can be served as an amuse-bouche when guests<br />
arrive. There is something comforting about the familiar potato<br />
chip, and pecorino Romano is a favourite of Chef James Walt,<br />
Araxi Restaurant in Whistler. He likes the saltiness of the cheese<br />
and its hayeld smell. Potatoes grow plentifully in the Pemberton<br />
area, just outside of Whistler.<br />

Combine the pecorino Romano and goat cheeses<br />
in a medium bowl. Warm the cream infusion on<br />
low heat, then strain it through a ne-mesh sieve<br />
over the cheeses. Discard the solids, then whisk<br />
the cream and cheese mixture until smooth.<br />
Fold in the chopped chives and refrigerate the<br />
dip for 2 hours, or until it becomes rm.<br />
Finish Potato Chips: Fill a deep pot or a wok twothirds<br />
full with peanut (or vegetable) oil and<br />
heat it to 330°F (use a deep-fat thermometer<br />
to check the temperature). Drain the potatoes<br />
and carefully pat them dry with paper towels.<br />
Fry the potatoes in small batches for 3 minutes,<br />
until golden brown, then use a slotted spoon to<br />
transfer the chips to paper towels and season<br />
with eur de sel.<br />
To Serve: Spoon the pecorino-chive cream into a<br />
piping bag tted with a wide nozzle. Pipe a line<br />
of dip along each chip. Arrange the potato chips<br />
on a serving platter, garnish with the chive sticks<br />
and bay leaves and pass the plate around.<br />
Wine: Sip village Chablis or unoaked B.C.<br />
Chardonnay, or some B.C. bubbly would be fun.
