[VanFoodies eat Okanagan] Hester Creek: Terrafina, The Villa & the Winery

For the Canada Day long weekend, Mr. and I went to the Okanagan.

During our stay, Mr. and I also had dinner at the Terrafina Restaurant and tasted some wine in the Tasting Room.

This is the second location of Jethro's and the lesser known one, so the line up was not as crazy as the Dunbar location. In fact, we were able to get a table as soon as we arrived. Jethro's serves breakfast all day long. There is a wide selection of savoury and sweet items to choose from.

[Recipe] Dirty Apron Scones for Your New Year’s Day Brunch

As part of our review of The Dirty Apron Cookbook, we tried the recipe of the Dirty Apron Scones. I was very impressed by how easy the recipe was, and for making it for the first time, how great the scones turned out. This will be a good recipe to prepare ahead of time and just finish it off in the morning after recovering from all the champagne and drinks!

I don't eat out fast food very often; but when fast food joints release interesting menu items, I'm often intrigued and want to give it a try. Two recent items were Wendy's Pretzel Burger and Tim Hortons's Maple Breakfast Biscuit.
