About the Authors

The Chefs' Table Society of British Columbia is a registered non-profit society comprised of more than 150 of B.C.'s leading chefs and culinary professionals. Its members are dedicated to using local, sustainable ingredients in their regional cuisine. The Society actively secures apprenticeships for and bestows bursaries to emerging local chefs and also finances culinary education programs in B.C. schools.

Joan Cross is an avid cook, largely self-taught from Julia Child’s books, although she has taken courses at Le Cordon Bleu, London, and with several notable chefs, including Jacques Pï??pin.
