I'm willing to risk snobby service to get great espresso! I guess you have to be famous in coffee circles like Mark Prince (senior editor of coffee geek) to get permission to post photos since neither Arieanna nor I could get permission to post pictures. What's up with that?
Last Tuesday evening the Vancouver Slow Food convivium held its annual spring potluck. Its theme being dishes that celebrate spring. I am usually fond of potlucks but was extra excited about attending this one...foodies cooking up the best of the season.
We dined on a array of delicious dishes ranging from an "edamole" and homemade flax seed crackers to a southern style gumbo of seasonal mixed greens and ham to a refreshing rhubarb cream roulade.
Here are some of Barb's favourites from yesterday's Slow Food Vancouver Potluck (remember that non-members are always encouraged to come but for potlucks are on a waiting list after members and that most events except for restaurant events are inexpensive or freeremember all events are free and non-members are welcome!). More on this later from Barb!
The only thing missing from the incredibly useful Vietworldkitchen.com site (that I learned about via Andrea) is an RSS feed. I love Vietnamese food and hope to go to Vietnam for cooking school someday! Needless to say, I am really looking forward to the cookbook currently being written by the person behind Viet World Kitchen that's coming out in 2006.
