This week Jon and Blayne met to discuss some current events and to experiment with some more new equipment. Exciting news including the menu for the BC Shellfish Festival Gala dinner, and a very lucrative contest! Also the North Vancouver Island Chefs Associations Pasta Day is sold out, Blayne is back on Facebook with a new group for Comox Valley Paleos, and Jon is soon getting some much needed rest with a maintenance closure of Atlas Cafe. Thanks for listening to the Edible Valley podcast. We gratefully accept donations to help with our hosting, as well as contributions of food ingredients to the Edible Valley test kitchen.
