A local speciality in Wakefield...the Québecoise-- filled with berries and laden with butter.

Just the Beginning!

While the official book tour ends on the coast of Vancouver Island, the real odyssey of Canadian cuisine is just beginning.  Across the land, Canadians are claiming local food as their own and these days they're making the choice, not out of necessity as was done in the earliest days of settlement, but out of pride.  Never before has a food book on Canada hit the Globe and Mail's best seller list, not just for one flash-in-the-pan week, but for two.  More than anything this speaks to the hunger Canadians have for an understanding of our collective food ways.  
Stay tuned!  The journey together continues.
