The dinner is part of a program organized by Edible BC called Cooking with BC's Best Market Dinner. At each dinner, a renowned local chef would display his or her culinary skills and inspirations. First booked in February this year, we finally got to savour the dishes that we have been yearning for over the last six months. The chef for dinner was Lee Parsons, the executive chef at Bacchus Restaurant in the Wedgewood Hotel.
Starbucks Mooncakes ft. the Origin of Mooncake
My parents were just in HK for a couple of weeks, who happened to have spent this year's Moon Festival (aka Mid-Autumn Festival) there. I usually provide them with a shopping list, but this time around, I've got only one item: Starbucks Mooncakes. Yes, you read it right. Starbucks does sell mooncakes but they're not available here. That's why I had to make sure my parents would bring me back some. Sure enough, I got a box to try.

[Wines] Touring Fort Wine Co., Domaine de Chaberton and Township 7
Last year I attended Tourism Vancouver's Open House and entered its door prize draw. I was later notified that I was the lucky winner of a local winery tour, courtesy of A.E. Vancouver Private Tours. Earlier this summer, I redeemed the prize and went on a private tour, visiting three local wineries in Langley. Here is a photoblog of the tour, along with my personal favourites.
