A Better Beaujolais

It was May. The skies above were a a light blue, clear and bright. A soft breeze blew, cooling the warmth of the sun on my skin as I sat down under the shade of a tree. Normally at this… Continue Reading →

Talking About Toronto

I took the opportunity to do a podcast (my first!) with Seth Resler of mysterymeet.org about Toronto + food (the first half of the episode), and then I go on in detail about Chantecler. But I do also mention Suresh and his… Continue Reading →
