The First Word on Food

Sunday October 22nd, that’s tomorrow, will find me chatting about food with Lisa Moskaluk on CIUT‘s The First Word. [Listen online between 1pm-3pm]

The theme for the show this week is food and while I don’t know who else they’ve got scheduled in, I suggested a handful of other guests who I know have something to say on the subject.

Who’d I suggest?

• Anne Pieponen – a CheapEats contributor who is opening a new bar/resto on College Street West just west of Dovercourt;
• Gurth Pretty – who just published Canadian Artisanal Cheeses, how cool is that?
• Johan Maes – the chef behind le Petit Dejeuner, yum yum yum!
• Stephen Chan – the managing director of the Bright Pearl who is pretty active in promoting Chinatown West and has helped with a couple of guides on dim sum.
• Karen Viva-Hayne – owner of Viva Tastings a small but growing catering company that has just opened a storefront.
• and since the Diwali-Eid celebration at the Gerrard India Bazaar, I thought it might be cool to have someone in to talk about the food of the season.
