Summer means different things to different people, but the smoky aroma of the BBQ combined with the rainbow of fresh fruits and vegetables makes it a delightful time of year for eating.
Chef, baker and pierogi-wizard Meganne Boucher returns to the Dep with a culinary celebration of early summer, combining local produce with Italian influences and Southern flavours highlighted by the BBQ and smoker. Expect lots of color, freshness and crunch, and memories of long nights at the cottage and picnics with friends.
