    Walter Chell created the caesar recipe in 1969 as a signature drink for the opening of new new Italian restaurant in Calgary. The caesar drink was meant to reflect the flavours of spaghetti alla vongole - spaghetti with clams and tomato sauce.

      The caesar (or more correctly, the bloody caesar) in Canada is an alcoholic beverage invented in Calgary by Walter Chell (I was lucky enough to work with him for a few years in Toronto and he made one for me). It’s basically a Bloody Mary made with Clamato instead of tomato juice. It doesn’t usually have food in it (except for a piece of celery). You can literally get it anywhere’s in Canada (and some NE US states).

    If you come to Toronto there is so much food to try as there are dozens of pockets of culture here and a really great food culture. Definitely try the Korean, Indian, Polish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, West Indian, Tibetan, Caribbean areas - off the top of my head - and well, whatever you can find. Kensington market. St. Lawrence Market. Ossington restaurants, Queen St West. The Toronto ravine trails. Toronto Islands if you have time. High Park when cherry trees are in bloom. There are some bike paths downtown but be careful if there aren't of course. Toronto Life online has recommendations for places to eat and things to do. Enjoy Canada!!!

You can get a great entre that includes soup or salad, sourdough bread loaf, desert and coffee or tea. All at very reasonable prices! Just a couple of our go too favorites we love!

    "There's a whole buncha ducks!" Video cuts to a small flock of geese and goslings. Ummm... OK. Duck, duck, goose aside, I'm really glad you aren't road tripping in Canada anymore. I was really worried about you guys still being up there with those two spree killers running around literally *right where you were* in your last videos!!! When I heard they are suspected in the killing of a couple who were van camping, I was truly terrified, until I found out who the couple actually was. I'm *very* sorry it happened to them, but _incredibly relieved_ that it didn't happen to you!
    For future reference, duck confit (pronounced con-FEE, with a very soft n) is heavily salted duck meat slowly cooked in rendered duck fat in the oven. It was a way of preserving the meat back in the days before refrigerators. It's almost like canning foods because it is an _anaerobic_ (no air) storage method. It keeps as long as the cold duck fat is undisturbed. And when it's made of wild duck, it's absolutely unbelievably flavorful. It's still good made with domesticated ducks, and the duck fat will always come from domesticated ducks because wild ducks are quite lean, but the wild duck meat is ten times more flavorful. And once all the confit is gone, the remaining duck fat makes the most delicious fried potatoes of any style (fries, home fries, hash browns, rosti etc...) anyone ever tasted, I promise!
