Check about Nei's Maldaner report, about his culinary experiences at Eat! Vancouver, that have happened from may 23 to 25, in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Searching for news, I've programmed this week to know better the Canadian culinary. I've dedicated my self on watch TV programs that speaks about gastronomy.
Here in North America, there's a very good channel, called Food. At this channel, we have many kinds of programs, since the most commons, that teach, each day a new recipe, or those more interactive ones, that you can even call to.
Check about some very interesting TV Shows:
Magaiver: in this show, the guy has to deal with an "impossible mission" with or without any structure and limited time. It's more interesting, seeing he surpassing difficulties and challenges. But, mainly, because be see ways of deal with daily situations, of people, solutions. It's valuable to the life, the program is very well elaborated, and interesting to watch.
Iron Chef America: is an American tv show in a "kitchen stadium", where happens challenges, and wins who prepare the best quality, taste and presenting food. It's a fantastic TV program. Each day a new challenge and people from all over world come to compete and participate. There are always the competitors with their handlers.
There's another program that shows cakes. It's a competition of cakes preparing in until seven hours. People make incredible cakes, each day a new theme. They build castles, animals, dolls, and so on by cake. The people's capacity is incredible and unbelievable.
In another tv program, happens a fruit sculpture competition. The participants build huge sculptures and you see the fruits becoming animals, flowers, and many other objects.
Another interesting tv program, it's about and adventurer, that, with his trailer, travels around Canada. Each day, he has a new theme, and in each place he goes, creates very interesting foods. It's a very irreverent program.
In another one, the character finds a woman, or a man, at the supermarket and goes home with him/her, to prepare and special and surprising super to his/her husband/wife.
The channel also transmits grill TV shows, and some other about kid teaching, to eat fruits, vegetables and other foods.
The most interesting is that, in addition to teach the foods preparing, there's always and history involved, a plot, humans grimace. This is an incredible view.
After watching all this TV shows and stay mesmerized with the local culinary, I decided going to the gastronomic event Eat! Vancouver. There, I nearly could see these competitions; also I could know the market options and chat with people.
The organic products are in top, and the Canadian products are always more valued. Their wines and agricultural stuffs, as cheeses, salamis and ham, are very expensive.
At the gastronomic event, I saw many products and for-adventure foods. I noticed that Canada is a country that valued the good life nature.
In this week, I enjoyed Vancouver. I've visited the bridge, sunset, saw people walking by kayak, boat. It was just a beauty to a city that lives on the Pacific edge, with millions of islands.
