The Knife off the Wall

Before I owned a chef’s knife, I learned to respect the one everyone used. My first job as a cook started at four in the morning at Perkins Family Restaurant. Four. In the morning. I was a prep cook, and one of my first tasks was chopping onions. My supervisor, Bobby Brown, took a chef’s knife off the wall and handed it to me....

Five Countries, One Table

Jollof, Memory and a Winnipeg Culinary Crown Five versions of jollof brought different countries and culinary traditions into competition. Around one Winnipeg table, strangers discovered that choosing the “best” plate also meant confronting the memories and loyalties they brought with them. By the time dishes four and five reached our table, alliances had begun to form. We did not know which chef or country stood behind each number....

Why Does a Simple Pork Skewer Carry So Much Memory?

Long before I saw the barbecue, I could smell it. Driving through Kildonan Park in north Winnipeg, you pass all the things that make the park a favourite gathering place: the river winding along the shoreline, open green spaces, playgrounds, picnic areas, and families spread across the grounds. Then, towards the end of the park road, you reach the large picnic shelters where the parties are held....

A Taste Notes reflection on Filipino barbecue, summer park gatherings, inihaw, and the memories carried by a simple pork skewer.

Late Night Potato Chip Cravings: My Obsession With Chips

Late Night Munchies: Potato Chips Late night potato chip cravings usually start without thinking. One bag opens during a movie, or in the middle of scrolling, or just because it’s there. The first handful is automatic. Then another. Somewhere between the crunch and the salt, time slips a little. You don’t really notice when the bag gets lighter—only when it’s suddenly empty....

A relatable reflection on salt, crunch, habit, and why one bag of chips never feels like enough.
