Saab Ken writes (thanks!) that Tony Bourdain, Celia Brooks-Brown and Martin Yan are coming to the wonderful BooksToCooks store in Yaletown in November! Too bad I will miss all of them.  More information on their incredibly hard to follow (unless you enjoy manually surfing to their site every day to see what's changed and whether a particular class is sold out!) old skool bookstocooks.com site.

Our of our readers emailed us (thanks!) about Cicchetti Bar Cafe at (1016 West Georgia at Burrard, 604 684-3880) which apparently has free WiFi, decent food and good coffee. Definitely going to have to check this one out!

I've updated the site policies to state that ad hominem and disrespectful userids as well as comments will be deleted. A gentle reminder: Barb and I make the rules here. You are welcome to do whatever you want on your own blog or website. I encourage you to start your own blog.

If I had the time and energy (a baby is a lot more tiring and even more rewarding than I'd thought), I'd be there!
