Recent Cookbook Reviews on BC Review

A couple months back, I got approached by The British Columbia Review to contribute to their site by doing cookbook reviews for them. If you’re unfamiliar with The BC Review, their mandate is to review books that are written by BC-based authors. We have a

Onion Tarte Tatin

I’m weird. This will come as no surprise to those of you who know me well. If you go with me to a restaurant for the first time, I’m always going to try to order the weirdest thing on the menu. I want to try 

Roasted Artichoke & Spinach Dip {Vegan}

Roasted Artichoke & Spinach Dip {Vegan}

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Vancouver is a great city to live in, especially if you are vegetarian or vegan (it’s also stupidly, ridiculously expensive, but that’s a whole other story). We have so many restaurants and stores that cater to

Which Piping Bag Works Best?

I am not the world’s most proficient cake-decorator. It’s something I badly need to learn or teach myself or whatever, but truthfully, I like simple decorations anyway, so that works out? I do, however, use my piping bags quite often to make piped desserts: cookies,

Thug Kitchen: Vegan Tacos

Tacos!!! What is it about tacos?? They are the kind of thing you can eat with one hand, and you can pretty much make them with anything. They are a delicious, self-contained unit that includes all four food groups. And you know what else?? They’re
