Fable: From Farm to Table
Fable 1944 W 4th Ave In the most recent edition of Bon Appetit, the concept of “farm to table” is referred to as “industry standard.” And though we have certainly seen the emergence of restaurants with a strong, sustainable foundation, I would argue that, in Vancouver, farm to table is actually still an anomaly.

Phnom nom nom: Phnom Penh
Phnom Penh 244 E Georgia Street Mon-Fri: 10:00am – 9:00pm Sat-Sun: 10:00am – 10:00pm Shortly before I first ventured to this corner of Chinatown, someone had told me that the deep fried chicken wings at Phnom Penh were so good; they had to be breaded in crack.
