Olive Oil Tasting
On friday, a gourmet friend and I headed for Karen Chekerdjian‘s boutique for an olive oil tasting. Other than being uber-excited about the tasting itself, I was really curious about the boutique. It looked like a pretty cool space. Here are the olive oils that...

So it’s that time of the year again, the time of the egg battles. Growing up, I have to admit, the egg taping contest was my favorite thing about Easter. My mother was always very good at picking the winning egg. It had to be...

I have been coming to Montreal every year since I was two, and over the years I have built a food checklist of things I have to have in this wonderful city in order to feel like the trip was worth it. Most of my...
Le Mandarin Oriental, Paris : Lunch at Le Camelia
If you open the Curnonski or Escoffier cook book, you’ll find sophisticated complex and rich meals that combine tradition and the know how of a skilled chef. It’s tasty, its heavy, it bears a very long complex name. Great Chefs like Alain Ducasse for example eventually...
