Sillmacka - matjes herring, hard-boiled egg, sour cream sauce, pickled onion, herbs, butter, 100% rye. My Estonian father spent his early childhood in Sweden, so I grew up on this sandwich, though I only came to love it in adulthood. Recipe in the new @lcbofoodanddrink .
The tree is up, Xmas tunes are playing and pleasantly-mediocre movies are streaming. The holidays are here! For entertaining and gifting inspiration, I’ve got fun hors d’oeuvres in “Small Talk”, @michellelucaslarving brings her candy cane love to “Mint Condition”, Drinks Editor @_packlight offers a “Martini Master Class”, plus much, much more. Grab a copy of @lcbofoodanddrink and dig in. Happy Holidays!
São Paulo’s mortadella sandwich—made famous by Anthony Bourdain—in slider form. Fun hors d’oeuvre to put out over the holidays. Recipe from my “Small Talk” feature in Holiday @lcbofoodanddrink .
This cover—one of my faves—is giving all the fall feels. Tons of great stuff in this issue, from @hungryrightnow ’s veggie cocktails to @victoriamwalsh ’s spooky Halloween menu. I’ve got two articles: a celebration of cabbage in “Head to Head”” and “The Great Canadian Pairing Guide”. Grab a copy @lcbo before they disappear. #lcbofoodanddrink
Here is our Summer issue with its stunning cover star, @michellelucaslarving ’s no-churn ice cream. I’ve got two articles: a mixed grill feature called “Platter Up” and a trio of grilled cocktails under “Char Appeal”. There are plenty of other recipes and inspiration from our amazing roster of contributors. Happy Friday! #lcbofoodanddrink
In the new issue of @lcbofoodanddrink , I’ve got a feature exploring viral food trends called Almost Famous. I tested a whack of grilled cheese hot dogs before landing on this chili-loaded winner that’s easy to make in quantity and actually looks good. It would be a great weekend (or freelancer) lunch. #lcbofoodanddrink
We’ve made a few new and exciting changes to the @lcbofoodanddrink lineup. The year will now start with a themed issue, and in 2025 it’s travel. Not only is it packed with fresh ideas for your next trip - check out @mondosismondo ’s amazing Great Escapes - we’ve also got plenty of delicious ways to escape without leaving the comfort of your home. And for Easter, dive into @irene_matys ’s gorgeous menu in Opa!
In our first-ever Travel issue, I edited a collaborative piece called Forks in the Road, where some of our contributors recreated favourite foods enjoyed while traveling in North America. My contribution was this warm, buttered lobster roll I first had at the amazing Neptune Oyster in Boston. #lcbofoodanddrink
If you haven’t grabbed your Holiday @lcbofoodanddrink yet, get moving before they run out. It’s packed with dozens of delicious recipes, entertaining tips and gift ideas. There’s @michellerabin ’s stunning “Warm Welcomes” menu, @eshunmott ’s gluten-free treats in “Bake a Difference” and @michellelucaslarving ’s handsome cover star from “Desserts That Dazzle” plus a ton more. Hopefully we can inspire better eating, drinking and entertaining this holiday season. #lcbofoodanddrink
