Can TV, cookbooks, and a line of signature frozen entrées be far behind? Part II
That's right, I have another small piece in the July, 2007 issue of Toronto Life that hit newsstands yesterday. It's a profile of a dish by Chef Andrea Nicholson at Sequel restaurant. The dish is a 'sous vide' of arctic char with octopus and blood orange. It's served with a wonderful, palate- and sinus-clearing icicle radish and wild ginger sorbet that starts sweet and finishes fiery, and a green icicle radish gelée that is the focus of the piece. The seafood is topped with a craveable fish skin 'crisp' -- a salted and fried piece of arctic char skin that calls to mind some sort of potato chip-nori hybrid.
All this is my way of saying, go buy the latest issue of Toronto Life. For now, at least, it's the only way to read the piece, though I'll post the link when it's up on the Toronto Life website. I know I said I'd add a link to my piece last time and have yet to do so, but that's not my fault. Toronto Life has yet to make it available online. I can only assume it's because they worry the surge in traffic to view the piece would kill their web servers.
But I could be wrong.


You are too funny.
I can't wait to read the new piece.
And by the way, because of your last post I ate an entire bag of Doritos on my own!

I saw your last reference to TO Life and like a fool, bought the magazine.What did you have, 6 lines, or was it 8 at most ? TO Life has become such a flaky publication, offering so little substance.Their food influencing factor has hit the skids too.
Reading some of the cryptic restaurant reviews leaves normal people wondering WTF they are doing.
At least I learned the whole truth about the Tim Horton doughnut saga though, so thanks for that.
