Food is one of the quickest ways into someone else’s story.
Ask someone about a dish they grew up eating and chances are you won’t just hear about the food. You’ll hear about a grandmother’s kitchen, an early memory, something gathered from the land, or a recipe made so many times no one bothers to write it down.
That idea runs through this issue. These are stories about the foods we carry with us and the ones rooted deeply in the places we call home. About traditions kept alive, knowledge passed down and new traditions taking shape.
Because when we talk about what we eat, we are so often talking about who we are, where we come from and what we long to hold onto.
"It seems that many travellers are seeking opportunities to be more purposeful in the way that they plan and spend their travel money."

"From coast to coast to coast, Canada is bursting with unique flavours, fascinating history and stories that make us who we are. If you ask me, there is no better way to discover it all than by immersing yourself in the local food scenes of communities across the country. Doing that isn’t just delicious, it’s also an amazing way to meet some of the country’s most spectacular food producers, chefs, and restaurateurs."
