I made some baby-friendly sourdough (very little whole grain in there!) which turned out to be adult-friendly too.

Sandwiches for supper felt right in the heat, so I chopped up a bunch of jarred things (roasted red peppers, marinated artichoke hearts, olives) and put those on top of some Jarlsberg and under some feta.

Mayo on the outsides and onto the flat top, really tasty!

How delightful to be back tonight to see our friends Lisa and Chef Mike and their team do what they do so wonderfully well.

Big thanks to that whole team (and to our patient fellow diners) for welcoming our group of two hungry adults and one very hungry toddler. We were all excited to be there, and one of us was quite vocal about it.

The food was a hit with us all. Pictured are the Spirit of the East fauxtail, the hummus, Pacific prawns, the halloumi, the fries and the chicken. As you can see, I walked out onto the deck for that chicken shot, so I hope you’re enjoying it!

Good GRACIOUS it was all delicious. The Pink House as we know it wraps up operations in mere days… visit while you can!

We can’t wait to see what Lisa and Mike do next. Thank you, friends, it’s been so delicious to visit you for years.

What wonderful food producers we have here on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia.

Last night we hosted friends for dinner and served up many, many pierogi, to rave reviews from all, particularly the three diners aged three years and younger!

And a cool experience prior to cooking up these delights: I was walking along the sidewalk in Lower Gibsons and saw the Mama Musey sign outside the kitchen.

Walked down the lane… rang the bell… and was able to buy pierogi direct from Michelle herself!

Project Homemade Deli Meat continues…

Here we have a beautiful turkey breast that was kind enough to order in and call me when it arrived.

I gave it an overnight dry brine in kosher salt along some garlic and onion powders and a pinch of baking powder.

The next day, I cooked the breast sous vide for about six hours at 66°C and then chilled it overnight.

The day after THAT, which would be today, I sliced and served it for lunchtime sandwiches.

Delicious. This one is a keeper for sure.

The latest effort in project Homemade Deli Meat…

This is a beautiful grassfed inside round roast from the wonderful here in Gibsons.

I cooked this sous vide for about 29 hours at 56°C and then chilled it for a day before slicing.

Lunchtime sandwiches today were very tasty indeed.

Made a very quick dinner tonight by blitzing up some edamame hummus (blanched soy beans, fresh lemon juice, EVOO, salt) and searing some ahi tuna and crab cakes from inside .

Tasty, fit for the season and, perhaps best of all, delightfully fast.

What a wonderful walk in our hometown of Gibsons, British Columbia this morning!

In the span of a block, we tasted blueberries, black cherries, plums and (pictured here) sour cherries.

Summer may not be my favourite season, but the fresh fruit definitely helps!

Homemade deli meat? Kinda!

This is a pork shoulder roast from my friends . I gave it an overnight dry brine and then cooked it sous vide for close to 18 hours at 65.5°C.

After an ice bath and some time in the fridge, it sliced up beautifully and made for some fantastic sandwiches for lunch.

🎙️ New Cheftimony episode is live!

This week I’m joined by , a Vancouver-based lawyer with a focus on the wine industry. We dig into how Megan built her practice in wine law, how she supports her clients, and what’s changing across the sector.

We talk about:

🍷 Creative ways younger folks are entering the wine business

📉 The demographic shift—boomers as both winery owners and core customers

🍇 The rise of “nolo” (no- and low-alcohol) choices

🗂 Trade and tariff challenges

💬 Megan’s fantastic advice for anyone early in their career, whatever that career might be

🍇 And of course, there are wine recommendations!n Megan shares what’s been in her glass lately (high-acid pinot noir) and what will be soon (summer-friendly rosés!), all from right here in British Columbia.

Holy moly, it’s a new episode!

Joining me for Episode 073 of the Cheftimony Podcast is points-and-miles travel expert Julia Menez. Julia is the perfect guest to discuss several topics near and dear to my heart: luxury travel… Las Vegas… and food!

Julia is the driving force behind where she breaks down the sometimes overwhelming world of travel loyalty programs to guide those of us willing to invest the time toward some amazing luxury travel experiences, at a far lower cost than the cash ticket price.

From her current home base in Las Vegas where Julia loves off-Strip dining, to a steakhouse in Buenos Aires, to some great (and not-so-great) food options when flying business or first class, Julia takes us to some of her favourite food-friendly destinations around the globe.
