Description

Pacific Palate is the expanded and updated edition of the ultimate guide to sourcing local, artisanal, gourmet food products on Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands.

In this expanded and updated edition, well-known food writer Don Genova presents the best food producers of Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, introducing readers to the many talented and passionate people and companies throughout the region--all working to promote a growing food culture. Meet the local food artisans and learn about their history, discover favourite offerings, and get a sense of how well you can eat if you buy local.

Organized into six regions--Comox Valley, Cowichan Valley, Mid-Island, Greater Victoria, Saanich Peninsula, and the Gulf Islands--the book provides complete sourcing information and the stories behind some of the best produce, dairy, chocolate, honey, sauces, meats, seafoods, baked goods, and beverages to be found on the islands.

The book also includes Saturday Sojourns--tips for spending a toothsome and memorable day in each region. Open the door to the islands' food network and discover high-quality food products made with love and care right here. With over 160 profiles, an intro to the language and labelling around local food, and six detailed maps to set you on the path, Pacific Palate is your guide to the best of the islands' edible abundance.
