THE dining out experience is
often filled with new dishes
and tastes that one would not
undertake on their own at
home. There is certainly noth-
ing wrong with dining out,
especially if the reason behind
it is to avoid the pain associat-

for those not too beat with
day-to-day life to cook, here’s
one of three recipes in this
issue of Flavors of Vancouver
supplied by some of the best
tastebud pieasers on the North

too much, paying a visit to the
restaurant 1s not out of the
question either. This one
comes from Edgemont
Village’s Cafe Norte.
