Publisher’s Notes<br />
Spring Growth<br />
Spreading the <strong>Eatdrink</strong> Message<br />
By CHRIS McDONELL<br />
The sun is shining today and I see<br />
shoots pushing out of the earth in<br />
the gardens, so Spring<br />
really has arrived. I’m<br />
delighted, and excited, because<br />
at <strong>Eatdrink</strong> we have been eagerly<br />
anticipating this season through a<br />
long and intense winter, and I’m not<br />
a winter-hater. It’s just that we have<br />
some big changes afoot, and the<br />
time has come to talk about them.<br />
This issue, the largest <strong>Eatdrink</strong> in<br />
Serving<br />
Kitchener,<br />
Waterloo,<br />
Cambridge,<br />
quite some time, focuses on “outdoor<br />
eating and drinking.” I like the mix of<br />
articles, touching upon so many facets of the<br />

stories to tell is not one of them.<br />
We’re happy to share some extra<br />
ones this issue.<br />
Bryan Lavery took on the<br />
challenge of compiling the “Patio<br />
Roundup” for us again this year,<br />
and a daunting job it is. Listing<br />
every destination worthy of a visit<br />
is impossible, but these highlights<br />
have me eager to get into the great<br />
outdoors ... in a comfy seat with<br />
cold drink in hand.<br />
