Lemon Coriander Smoked Paprika BBQ Chicken
For my money, summer time is without a doubt the most wonderful time of the year. It’s the reigning King of the Seasons, and it has a special knack for making absolutely everything just feel right in the world. The vibe maker. Living in the Great White Canadian North, our summer time is on the…

Everyone has ‘that’ dish. The recipe that, if only for a moment, makes you feel like all is well and good in the world. It’s jam-packed with happy, joy, and overflowing with the good vibes. It’s comfort food X 100. 9 times out of 10 in my house, this is a curry. A good curry is…

Provolone Pancetta Burgers with Parmesan Herb Crisps
Parmesan, thank you for being so crazy delicious. I recently had the good fortune to hear about Sobey’s Parm Night, an evening to celebrate all things parmigiano reggiano and their 30-month aged parm, straight from the land of deliciousness (viva Italia). On a burger. A Salad. A nice baguette. Or just shamelessly eating straight from…

Lemon Rosemary Chicken with Fingerling Potatoes, Green Beans, & Goats Cheese
Single tray bake recipes can be a serious lifesaver. Little fuss, little muss (is that a word?), and tailor fit to feed a crowd. Perfect. These tray bake meals have been rocking their way through our kitchen over the past few weeks. Along with takeout pizza, moving boxes, & too much coffee (no such thing).…

I’ve been travelling like a crazy man, meeting wonderful folks, and taking photographs at restaurants and for clients in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Toronto. Absolutely amazing trip, but always fantastic to be home. In my…
