In the Westender, I do a cover story recommending 50 of my favourite things to eat or drink in Vancouver.

In the Globe and Mail, Alexandra Gill and Chris Johns do a strange he said she said on the end of Gourmet. That’s two weeks in a row for Gill sans review. Seriously, that’s enough.

In the Vancouver Sun, Mia Stainsby reviews La Taqueria. The best thing about this piece isn’t the prose but rather the oblivious delivery dude carrying the big box behind Rafael in the photograph.”Um…hey guy! Big photoshoot going on here, umkay?”

In the North Shore News, Deana Lancaster goes in search of bivalves at the lamely-named Horseshoe Bay joint, Ya-Ya’s.

In the Vancouver Courier, Tim Pawsey has a few drinks but doesn’t get muddled.

In the Georgia Straight, Jurgen Gothe teaches us how to stay warm and wet this Fall (thank you).

Illuminating story in the Financial Post on leadership and staff retention, starring Bud Kanke and Scott Pratico of Joe Fortes.

Daniel Boulud is a happy, happy man.

Anya Levykh writes one of the shortest restaurant reviews I’ve yet seen in print for Metro. Barely 195 words. Really? It’s like Twitter, but in print.
