Vikram Vij

Favourite Ingredient
“One of my favorite local products and an important ingredient in most of our dishes is tomatoes. The tomatoes we buy from owner and producer Naty King of Hazelmere Organic Farm are the best quality for the best price.”

Favourite Product
“The fresh apricot and ginger scones at Terra Breads are terrific.”

3/4
Makoto Ono

Favourite Ingredient
“Albacore tuna. It’s best served sashimi-style – it tastes delicious and I love how it melts in your mouth. I get it from Organic Ocean Seafood right near Granville Island.”

Favourite Product
“I’m Japanese, so I’ll have to go with good Canadian sake. My favourite is Osake by Artisan SakeMaker on Granville Island, because of its quality and flavour.
A good man and close friend of mine, Masa Shiroki, produces it.”

2/4
Andrea Carlson

Favourite Ingredients
“Lobster mushrooms. And squash blossoms from Hannah Brook Farm in Maple Ridge. Who doesn’t love the extravagance of eating a flower?”

Favourite Product
“The Farm House Natural Cheeses in Agassiz. It has the most diverse selection of quality cheeses made from the milk of their own heritage dairy cows.”
