We’re Proud of our High Rating!
This review came as something of a surprise to us. We had no idea we were being reviewed and rated. But we were certainly pleased to find that SALT loved us so much! You can check out the Salt website and find our review on page 17.
When Seaside Magazine Came to Visit
Deb’s Day Out, with Deborah Rogers
“Eating all the dishes, along with a delicate aromatic jasmine rice with mango for dessert, was both pleasure and pain! It was delightful to sit and share the meal with others…I enjoyed hearing their stories as I tried to squeeze in just a few more mouthfuls. Come to the class with an appetite is my advice. Be prepared to ask questions. Be adventurous as you sample the food. Get out of your rut!”
Deb came to visit us last summer for her regular feature column
Our Weekend on the Flavour Trail
Meeting and Greeting Food Fans from Everywhere!
Last summer, dozens of people came to visit us on the Flavour Trail in North Saanich. We were proud to be included in this wonderful community event that celebrates food producers and purvey once every year. Many of our neighbours came to call and get to know us a little better. We also met many folks from much farther away, who came for a unique experience of this rural island community.

Thank you for adapting recipes to be vegetarian for me! LOVE the marinated tofu! I really enjoy sharing in the cooking with everyone, then sitting and dining and TALKING with everyone. What interesting conversations and people! I always look forward to these classes.

Fantastic! Not only did we get to eat a delicious meal, but we got “hands-on” experience. So we can do it at home — hopefully. Thank you so much. What a great day.
