That's one big mistletoe... (taken from @eatsofasia's booth @marketcollective. It's a #RamenParty this weekend!) #marketcollective #yycfood #yyc

Course 3 of #SxSEFeast: Bangkok x São Paulo. Steak satay "à la Gaucho". 7K Ranch steak (medium rare), cascabel chili salt rubbed pineapple, Parilla-charred peppers and eggplant, with three sauces: "Green" herb chimichurri, "Red" sambal ikan bilis and "white" peanut satay sauce. This is satay, punched up. Oh yeah! #ChefApprenticesFeast #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc (at charbar)

Plate 4 @eatforeign: Vietnamese coffee parfait. Like a tiramisu but even better. Strong coffee and chocolate flavours, with a bit of sweetness, just like how a ca phe sua da should be (although I do take my Viet coffee on the sweeter side). But why have just one dessert... #ChefApprenticeDinesOut #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyceats #yyc (at Foreign Concept Restaurant)

Butter poached lobster tails, basil beurre monte. What a way to start a new year, eh? #ChefApprenticeAtHome #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #yyceats #happynewyear

After being tortured ALL WEEKEND (thank you very much everybody...) with pictures from @eatforeign, it's time for me to put out a few. Dining alone tonight, and starting off with a salmon fresh roll. Yuzu cured salmon, crème fraîche, gochujang. Really nice way to open...salmon actually has a good note of Yuzu, but not overpowering. Still more to come... :) #ChefApprenticesDayOff #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyceats #yyc (at Foreign Concept Restaurant)

Chicken tortilla soup for lunch today @charbar_yyc When life hands you a lemon you better make that metaphorical lemonade. And when you have seasoned chicken stew... Although according to some of our lunch diners it was "too much stuff". TBH, I've never heard anyone say a soup had too much stuff. This is truly a first! Nevertheless, delicious. It's still available (quantities limited) @philandseb East Village until 9pm. Grab one & let me know how it tastes. #ChefApprenticeMakesLunch #ChefApprenticeLife #yycfood #yyc #soup (at charbar)
