The new issue of EAT Magazine is out both online and in print. Within you’ll find plenty: a Tara Lee feature on Polderside Farm, a Chris Mason Stearns interview with Tinhorn Creek winemaker Sandra Oldfield, a feature on Sean Heather’s Gastown fiefdom by yours truly, reviews galore and much MUCH more.
You can read the full digital edition here.
A cryptic note in this afternoon’s mailbag:
We have your pig. The ransom: good cheese. Two wheels of good cheese. Do not contact the authorities or the pig gets it. Do not contact Urban Diner or the pig gets it. Come alone. Drop point is #1 West Cordova (NOT Boneta.) You have until midnight Saturday.
I’m pretty sure that that’s the brass swine from Salt. Dig the masking tape blindfold.
Gawd. I hate deleting my own posts but I just did. Sigh. Let me rephrase what I had written as a question to simplify and erase the sturm and drang context so some of the more fragrant knickers here can become unknotted…
Do you think PR representatives should post under their own names/signatures?
PS. The Ali reference was in reference to the deleted spat. I’ve left it up there because it’s Ali.
At our monthly CTS Board meeting the other day Vikram Vij advised us that his Commercial Drive storage room was broken into and cleared of the wine within, much of it special ordered all the way from SA. If you get any sketchy dudes pitching up at your back door offering to sell you cheap Jardin, don’t try to sell it back to Vikram for a profit call the restaurant and let them know.
