publisher’ s note
August marks a second official month of summer and ushers in the most anticipated season for foodies: harvest time! We are all enjoying fresh produce from gardens and recipes that offer variety for feasting. It also triggers excitement associated with the city’ s most beloved festival of multicultural flavour, Folklorama. This event sparked our choice for lastbite— for readers preferring to read back to front, start here and get to know a local star.
This issue celebrates the diversity of our multicultural community. The dishes shared by Chef Calvin Truong of KYU inthekitchen will prompt a new outlook on fast food and motivate us all to freshen up our recipe repertoire. Cooking that blends familiar dishes like pizza and subs with ingredients and brand new flavour profiles is the sort of ingenuity that expands the food landscape of this city.
Chefs Varun and Anil Kumar of Clay Oven and Chef Adam Tayfour of Les Saj play a role in this global flavour mix too. See ciao! cooks to further reinforce how Manitoba cuisine continues to reflect the creative people in this province and their stunning recipes. The spice blends used in the featured dishes introduce us to sumac and pomegranate molasses, both new favourites for the Ciao! team.
With festivals and markets in peak form during summer months, there are many ways to discover new flavours. See ciao! news for a round up of noteworthy events. These hot sunny days of summer are precious. Seize each one and explore the rich offerings of our great city, remembering to bite into something juicy whenever you can!
