Seasoned to taste
From keeping a nation’s food culture fresh to shelf space for small-scale producers, here are five food firms with tasty ideas for the year ahead.
Season’s eatings
As the seasons shift, so does our appetite for winter treats. Monocle visits five festive food firms, from a Niigata saké brewer to a Milanese panettone maker, that will elevate any occasion.
Consuls and carols
Diplomacy requires proficient hosting, especially during Christmas. We visit the festive residences of the Czech, Danish and Italian ambassadors to discover the importance of time-old traditions and a talented, patriotic chef.
Fruits of the earth
Monocle meets the makers who are living off the land in the bucolic surrounds of Prince Edward County.
Food
We check out a Haitian hostelry in Montréal and sample Argentinian food in Toronto. Plus: a visit to a surfing community that’s become a culinary hotspot. Join us on Canada’s food frontiers.
Lyse Doucet
Lauded BBC journalist and foreign correspondent Lyse Doucet mulls over her love of Middle Eastern fare and reflects on why food has become a weapon of war.
Mixing it up
We tuck into some top Japanese-Italian specialities in a converted Chinatown shophouse that doesn’t miss a beat.
