Queer of the Year – Day 2

When’s the last time you spent 16 hours with a group of virtual strangers? I’m pretty sure my group in Montreal is ready to get stabby with me. And I don’t blame them. We went shopping today in the Atwater Market around 6am PST. Atwater is an outdoor/indoor market, sort of like Granville Island without the view. On the flipside, it had waaaaay more produce and meats and cheeses.

We attended Ateliers & Saveurs, a cooking school in old Montreal this morning to learn how to cook from a crack team of chefs and mixologists. It was a pretty amazing experience and a comparable one in Vancouver would be with the Dirty Apron, or any other reputable local cooking school.

Here are some shots from today. I still need your votes, so please don’t hesitate to visit http://www.queeroftheyearcontest.com and click on the vote button. Thanks!!

Chef Whore… I know, right?

Check the QOTY website later today for videos from our cooking challenge. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll binge and purge. It’s that good. I promise.
