Nisha Vora of Rainbow Plant Life is a former lawyer who sensibly gave that up to become a vegan food blogger. She’s written a wonderful recipe book called The Vegan Instant Pot Cookbook

I’m happy to be back at the microphone, and I’m very happy you’ve chosen to join me.

Beyond the stories, I try to bring you practical information – everything from great spots to dine, to how you can be a better cook at home, to what we can all do as guests (never mind what the restaurants are doing) to improve our own dining experiences.

Join me for a whirlwind weekend tour of Vegas!

I look forward to reading my first copy of a new anonymously-published ‘zine on the kitchen scene in Vancouver and to an interview with the proprietors of a small business 

Also on the show, I rhapsodize about the final meal my wife and I had on our recent trip to New York.

My wife and I are in New York for the second phase of our honeymoon, and we stumbled upon Caprices by Sophie as we were walking to lunch at Dziupla, a Polish place with fantastic pierogies.

I’m delighted to report that I’ve made an appearance on a genuine Las Vegas podcast!

Looking ahead to a full show featuring an interview with my new friend Julian, an incredibly kind, Vegas-loving, podcast-hosting chef.

On today’s snack-sized episode, I’m sharing four food writers with you. Two are old (dead, in fact) and two are young.

quick reviews on two more great spots, the Sovereign Room where we enjoyed a drink and a snack, and the TBay classic Caesar’s Place, home of inimitable panzerotti.

 McKellar Confectionery, the legendary, opened-in-1926 Coney Island-style joint that I’ve raved about on the podcast before. We had a fantastic lunch and a quick catch-up with George, the third-generation hotdog-slinger behind the counter.

I recently reached out to Chef Jenny Dorsey for her recommendations on where to eat, and she came through with a fantastic website full of great ideas.

On this most recent trip to Vegas, I recorded a short interview with Kristy where she talks both about her podcast and about some food stops in Vegas you may not have heard about yet.

Since meeting with Jenna and Jacob at the Lone Wolf Bakery in Sechelt for Episode 012 of the show, I’ve had some more really fun discussions.
