Here is a round-up of upcoming tasty food events happening this month. We'll continue to update this post as we hear about new events, or after an event has taken place. If you would like your event featured in this post, feel free to send us the details at vanfoodies [at] gmail.com.
[Recipe] Happy Pi Day: Simple Pie Crust
Happy Pi Day! Nerdy, I know. March 14 (or 3/14 to illustrate the point) is the annual celebration of pi, since 3, 1 and 4 are the three most significant digits of π. March 14 is also White (Valentine's) Day. This is more common in Asia, particularly in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China.
[Recipe] Panna Cotta with Pomegranate Glaze
As part of our Valentine's Day dinner, I made Panna Cotta with a Pomegranate Glaze. This dessert is very easy to make and is perfect for amateur cooks. I chose pomegranate as the base of my glaze because of its colour - the red/purple-ish colour was appropriate for the occasion - but you can substitute it with other glaze such as passion fruit and mango. I also used an ice cream glass instead of ramekin, but for your reference, each serving is approximately 200 ml.
BETA5 Chocolates – Chocolate Workshop
Thanks to Vancouver Foodster, Mr. and I won a contest prize to attend a chocolate workshop at Beta5 Chocolates on Valentine's Day. What a perfect way to spend our evening on this special day! The chocolate event was a lot of fun, and I think it's perfect for couples or birthday parties or even bridal shower. It's a great gift idea for someone who loves and appreciates chocolates. I believe this is the first time that Jess & Adam hosted event of this kind, but I heard they might be doing something like this more often in the future. I definitely recommend others to give this a try - you will enjoy it!

Happy Valentine's Day! In light of this special occasion, I found a list of foodie pick-up lines by Anna Brones at Ecosalon. The original article has a list of 50, but I thought I'd share my 10 favourite ones. Some cheesy, some funny.
