To be honest, I was waffling on doing this one again but then I realized that no matter what is going on in the world Canada, Mexico, and the United States are the Three Amigos of North America and we just can’t quit each other no matter what some people might say. I’m a proud Canadian, I’ve made my living in the United States since 1992, and one of my favorite places in the world is Mexico. And I’m not alone.

So let’s celebrate our solidarity with a celebration! We’re going to draw up a pact made of party food and sign it with beer! The fact that it falls on the real Canada Day this year just makes it even more important that we seal our friendship with a Bloody Caesar! Tickets are $100 and go on sale June 1st at resy.com

I am going to Istria, Croatia this fall. This is a bucket list trip for me. From 10/13-10/19 I plan on eating and drinking my way across this beautiful area. I hope you all will be able to join me on this adventure. There is nothing I like more than traveling with new and old friends.

Romanesco!! It’s the first time we have used this funny looking green cauliflower. And it won’t be the last! We marinade the romanesco in lots of orange juice with a ton of dried chili peppers and garlic. It’s then dredged in a batter and deep fried until super crunchy. It’s topped with Mexican oregano and caper salsa verde and lots of creamy slices of avocado. Consider this dirt candy’s version of avocado toast.
