Scout works with a lot of local restaurants to get the word out about the cool and delicious things they’re doing, but they couldn’t do what they do without access to awesome ingredients. To get what they need, culinary creatives depend on personal networks of passionate artisans, farmers and producers who often work hard without ever seeing the glory they deserve. Since it’s always good to recognize those who have your back, we bring you the Supplier Shout Out!

This week we visit Gotham Steakhouse to find them using local artisan distillery Sons of Vancouver‘s delicious Amaretto in one of their more seasonal cocktails, The Nutcracker. This is how you can make it at home…
