- Forget the usual Tommy Atkins mango, all tart and stringy, and invest in some creamy smooth Ataulfo.
- Two chenin wines hit LCBO shelves, plus a few others: a classic chianti, a cabernet sauvignon, chenin blanc, and rasteau.
- Sometimes it's easier to just let the professionals make it -- especially if it is pig's feet stuffed with fois gras, straight from Au Pied de Cochon -- that place Bourdain visited while in Montreal. And there's more on the feet and new cookbook here.

- The fresh taste of community-shared agriculture.
- Fiddleheads start popping up north of the 49th parallel.
- Restaurant review: Kara Mia.
