Sheila's alma mater is doing food education right with Bistro 67, a teaching restaurant that is putting food from the field first and foremost.

We apologize for our long absence - things are finally starting to settle down for us, so hopefully we'll be able to go back to at least a monthly show schedule.

RIP Great Canadian Popcorn Company, Beanz and Ichiban.

Oshawa's got a new restaurant downtown to scratch that vegetarian and communal itch, without leaving carnivores in the cold!  Check out The Table on the web (http://thetablebycarol.ca/), twitter, facebook and most importantly in person: 20 Simcoe Street South, Oshawa, ON L1H 4G2.  Here's our review of the restaurant that talks that talk and walks the walk.

In this week's episode, we explore two great Mexican restaurants that are great at different things: Mexican Lindo and Jimmy Guaco's.  Check 'em out, and also look for Alexander Keith's new cider at the LCBO.

Sorry for the re-run, folks, but some stuff came up and we've been unable to record.  Enjoy this blast from the past and consider eating close to home as the warm weather brings the farmers' markets out!

This week we talk about more chocolate - the chocolate bars unique to and in common between the UK, USA and Canada.  Then, we have a review for Big Boy Burgers in Whitby.  Enjoy!
