How Long Does Scape Season Last?

Hello All - Just moved here recently and have started seeing scapes at the greenmarkets etc. Wondering how long the season usually runs? Thanks!

Anyone heard of this underground supper club in Toronto? I came across this in Compendium Daily but have not otherwise heard boo about it....

Paris in August with some Veg

Hi All

I will be in Paris for a few days this week with my hubby (who is a veggie). Any recommendations for restos (variety of price ranges) that could satisfy us both?

Cheers!

Looking for zucchini flowers...

Thanks Grandgourmand. What's the lag between flowers and fruit?

Looking for zucchini flowers...

YUM! I have never grown them myself......Do the fruits come before the flowers or vice-versa?

Looking for zucchini flowers...

Katbri - any luck finding them yet? I looked at the thread from last year and they started popping up about mid-July....

Buying Foraged Morels

Hi Hounders,

I see from other posts that morel season is off and running for the adventurous mycophiles - but any tips on where the non-forager can buy Ontario foraged morels (i.e. not commercially produced).

Cheers and happy Friday!

Storing Cotija

How should Cotija be stored? It is so feta-like I feel like it will just dry up if not in some kind of liquid?

la petite patisserie on King East

This is fantastic. I live across the street and have been waiting for it to open - I saw people outside on their "patio" today and was happy to see it was open. I will sample and report back. Thanks for the posts - I am stoked!!! With a sweet tooth like mine this could mean trouble.

Has anyone mentioned Petit Dejeuner on King East??? I love the Eggy Bread (DELISH) and Cheese Omelette.

Cotija Cheese in TO

Does anyone know where I can get some Cotija (feta-like Mexican hard cheese from cow's milk) in Toronto? I was at the St. Lawrence market last weekend and the cheese vendors had no idea what I was talking about.

Spotted Chocolate on Biscotti

Thank you for the info. I guess there is no way of avoiding it? Better quality chocolate?

Spotted Chocolate on Biscotti

Question for the bakers out there: what causes whitish spotting to occur on the chocolate on my chocolate dipped biscotti? I used baker's semi-sweet chocolate coarsely chopped (and mixed in some unsweetened chocolate as well) melted over simmering water. Any ideas?

Chow in the Upper West Side

A Toronto Chowhound is hitting up NYC next weekend and staying at Broadway and W 103 St. Suggestions for breakfast (or anything else!) in the area?

A Taste Above

This place is in my hood too. It is now open. I viewed their menu online and they have mainly meat dishes. Not too veggie friendly, but I may try their veggie chili or pasta sauces.
