Enjoyed great breakfast this morning at the Bon Appetit Culinary Studio in the Conde Nast Building on 42nd Street, hosted by Ontario Tourism, Ottawa Tourism and Tourism Toronto. First highlight was a quick detour to stop and observe the employees in the much-touted Conde Nast Cafeteria--every bit the show one would expect. Then it was off to the delicious breakfast, Ontario wines included, with my Canadian friends. Chef Caroline Ishii of Zen Kitchen in Ottawa (dined there last year, and it is truly sensational) and Chef Anthony Rose of the Drake Hotel in Toronto treated us right, from the former's sea vegetable caviar and garlic pesto dumpling in wild-leek ginger broth to the latter's Eggs Drake (apple cider poached egg with wild boar peameal bacon) and apple smoked whitefish among the savory treats. There's a food revolution on in Ontario: check out my recent feature on culinary tourism there for Meetings East.
