It has been five years since the publication of Vancouver Cooks and the Chefs’ Table Society has returned with a second helping of recipes celebrating the BC Food scene. Boasting over 100 new recipes from 70 chefs around Vancouver, Victoria and the Okanagan, including Tojo Hidekazu of Tojo’s Restaurant, Vikram Vij of Vij’s, Melissa Craig of Bearfoot Bistro in Whistler and Rob Feenie, this new volume is aimed at the home cook. With four sections on local food, international flavours, emerging talents and pioneering chefs, Vancouver Cooks 2 pays homage to BC’s unique culinary culture, giving the reader a glimpse behind the scenes of the food industry as well as an understanding of its heritage. Royalties from the sale of this book go to the Chefs’ Table Scholarship and Bursary Fund. To view a sample offering from this exciting new cookbook, visit our recipe box this week.
