- First Daniel Boulud, now Jean-Georges? UrbanDiner has a rumor that J-G Vongerichten may be opening up a restaurant in Vancouver.
- Via Chowhound: the Prarie Regional Barista Championship is being held in Calgary on May 24-25.
- I really hope these “splash sticks” (plastic plugs to cover the sip holes on lids) are barred from Starbucks locations in Canada.
- And I thought KitchenAid stand mixers were tech-saavy: a kitchen atop a ski hill in France relies on broadband and programmable recipes to create its gourmet dishes.
- A political affiliation by wine preference: some American pollsters claim the food people eat can reveal whether or not they are a Democrat or a Republican.
- I went back to Leva again last week, and gave their Prosciutto Pizza ($13) a try. It was easily twice the size of the Margherita Pizza I had last time, and tasted very similar to the type of pie served at Da Capo. Leva is still as charming and as chic as ever though!
