Foodists is a collective of like-minded food worshippers. We breathe and sleep in order to eat and drink. Have something to share with us? We'd love to hear from you. If it's something to eat or drink, even better.

I recently participated in an email recipe exchange. The idea was to send one person a quick and easy recipe involving ingredients you might have on hand, or that would not be difficult to get. In return…

Offal, in the form of animal innards or refuse bits, bounced back to the top of the food trend ladder. Woohoo! Go, North America. In many regions around the world, offal is neither novel nor a delicacy; it’s just a…

BBQ Pork buns. I grew up with them; my mom was the master of making them from scratch. I always thought hers was the best. That was until I started soliciting ideas of where to go & eat in NYC. Two of my…

My beef with restaurants that don’t take reservations is that it doesn’t make sense to the customer (me, at least) to stand around and wait when I know where and when I want to eat. But what if it makes…

I’m not going to waste your time talking about the dodgy industrial area that La Charcuterie Delicatessen is situated in (Port Kells), or how the deli doesn’t look like the health inspector knows where it is let alone…

The RimRock Café has been in business since 1987 – so why have I never heard of it? It’s probably because I don’t get up to Whistler very often, but that’s no excuse. Anyway, I received 2 completely unrelated…

Photo credit: Steve Mynett It was suggested, almost at the beginning of the Foodists BBQ Bootcamp put on by Rockin’ Ronnie Shewchuk, that anyone who didn’t feel like they could mix wines in the same glass…

I’m a Yorkshire lad (pronounced York–sha) born and bred. Grew up eating scotch eggs and lard sarnies with crisps (chips) for Saturday (pronounced Sat-day) tea (evening meal). So when I learned there was a British…

You ever have one of those Saturdays when a slot of time opens up and you can combine three or four things all at once? So it was this Saturday when I needed to go out and grab some sausages for Father’s Day, my…

But how was the horse? Good. Variable. Okay. Some pieces were great — tender and savoury and full of flavour and juice. Some were just okay. Horse meat turns out to be very lean, with a similar texture and…

After 18 years as a vegetarian, I’ve started eating meat again. Why? Mostly, it’s because I love food – I love eating, I love cooking, I love shopping for food. Food for me is definitely one of…
