Some of our kitchen team find traditional Nanaimo bars too sweet, so we developed a bar we all could love. Thanks to cocoa powder, salted almonds and much less sugar, we got it.

Fudgy on the inside, crisp on the outside, and dipped into (yes more) chocolate, these cookies are holiday perfection.

Sweet potatoes, leeks, carrots and coconut milk are just a few of the base ingredients making up this cozy and colourful Thai soup.

In the traditional version of this coastal dish, the zucchini is deep fried and set to rest for 24 hours. With a bit of multitasking, this version comes together in 30 minutes. We like to think Stanley Tucci—who famously calls this unctuous spaghetti his hands-down favourite pasta—would still approve.
