Even in Nanaimo, B.C., the origin of the Nanaimo bar is contested. One thing we can all agree on, though, is that Canadians love this triple-layered treat. Over the years, creative Canucks have used the traditional elements of this dessert in Nanaimo bar–flavoured martinis, cupcakes and more.

Toronto-based Chef Michael Angeloni, proudly shares his family recipe for White Borscht. A delicious Polish traditional Easter soup that connects him to his roots.
"Culturally, White Borscht is a soup served on Easter Sunday in Poland. In traditional facets, people used blessed ingredients that they would get blessed on Saturday in church to then use for this beautiful soup on Sunday. Currently, my mother still gets the eggs blessed that she uses. This soup was always my favourite holiday meal growing up and one that I always looked forward to eating." I also loved having red borscht on Christmas Eve, but the white borscht is my favourite!" ─ Chef Michael Angeloni.
Tourtiere is the creme de la creme of pies. Lightly spiced and herbed, this pork pie is especially anticipated for Christmas Eve celebrations, but it's equally tasty throughout the holidays and winter months. Tourtiere is completely make-ahead, delicious when turkey or chicken take over for pork and perfectly complemented by a tangy relish such as chili sauce.
