While searching for the origins of Canada's most famous fried dish, journalist Justin Giovannetti Lamothe finds a reflection not only of the country's intricate history, but also of his own neglected cultural roots. The recipe is deceptively simple--fried potatoes, cheese curds, gravy--but the story behind it is as rich and complex as Canada itself. Poutine is the closest thing we have to a national dish. As its popularity has spread across the country and beyond, it has become what the baguette is to France: a kind of national symbol, as immediately Canadian as the toque, beaver or hockey puck. Yet the odd, winding history of poutine has never been written--until now. Following lore about the dish's rise from the road-side chip wagons of rural Quebec, award-winning journalist Justin Giovannetti Lamothe tells a story that mirrors the growth of modern Canada and the shifting cultural gap between La Belle Province and its English-speaking neighbours. As the son of an anglophone mother and a francophone father, Giovannetti Lamothe is perfectly suited to the task: much of his childhood was spent on the outskirts of Trois-Rivières, a stone's throw from the region where--according to local lore--poutine was invented sometime in the 1950s or '60s. As he tracks poutine's origins and wanderings, he also reveals the evolving nature of his relationship to his father and, with this, to the Québécois heritage he once drifted away from. After reading the delectable Poutine, you'll never see--or taste--this humbly famous food in quite the same way again.

It Starts When you Walk Through the Door...You immediately realize that this is different, special, and without yet knowing why, you get the feeling this is going to be a night to remember. Then you look around Dan Tana's and you understand. This is not the hot new fusion cooking restaurant du jour everyone is talking about, the one that will close down within a year and never be mentioned again. No, this is a timeless restaurant, a perfect combination of Old Hollywood and new Hollywood...a seven-night-a-week social scene full of stories and secrets.Built in 1929, and sandwiched between Beverly Hills and the residential Norma Triangle, the location was not a traditional restaurant location in any sense of the word, as it was basically a bungalow housing fast food joint with names that changed over the years but whose fare stayed the same: Black Lucky Spot Café, Domenico's Lucky Spot, Dominik's Hamburger Stand. The primary clientele for this diner location were streetcar maintenance workers, on break from the Santa Monica line.But by 1964, change was coming to Los Angeles. Freeways were replacing street cars, the backlot of 20th Century Fox had been sold, and inits place Century City was rising, smog was everywhere, and every year hundreds of thousands of people were moving to LA. Still, the little house on Santa Monica Boulevard looked out over empty lots and vast undeveloped space, forever stuck in time—or so it seemed.Dan brought the location for $30,000 soon after opening the restaurant. It was a leap of faith by both Tana and the seller, given their agreement: a three-year payment schedule of $10,000 a year. In the very beginning it wasn't a roaring success. The challenge was intense competition in the LA dining scene. There were old favorites such as Musso & Franks, Villa Capri, La Scala, The Formosa Cafe, and Chasen's, plus a new restaurant, Matteo's, started by Dan's fellow La Scala staff compadre, Matty "Matteo" Jordan.For the first two years, the restaurant averaged only twenty-five dinners a night. At one low point, Joe DiMaggio stopped by to eat, and Dan Tana offered him 50% ownership for $15,000. No dice. So Tana did something The Yankee Clipper rarely did—he struck out. But Tana's tenacity and mission eventually succeeded in making Dan Tana's a legendary Hollywood mainstay that thrives to this day.

Dr. Steven R. Gundry, the New York Times bestselling author of the groundbreaking Plant Paradox series, argues that the microbiome, often called the enteric brain, is actually the primary driver of our neuronal and brain functionwithout a healthy gut, we cannot have a healthy brain. In his previous bestselling books, Steven R. Gundry laid the groundwork for healthy eating to prevent and repair leaky gut and improve our overall well-being. In The Gut-Brain Paradox, he continues his journey deep into the human body, making the connections between a healthy microbiomewhich helps our metabolic functionand a healthier brain, including improved cognitive function and mood.The Gut-Brain Paradox reveals how metabolic inflexibility is a key driver of neuronal death. Without metabolic flexibility, neurons are starved to death and have no fuel to repair. Since these neurons receive information from the microbiome and communicate with the brain, our brain function can only be as strong as the health of our microbiome.Dr. Gundry helps us understand that a leaky gut leads to a leaky brain, demonstrating the connections to Alzheimers and so-called Type 3 Diabetes. Thanks to the traditional Western diet which now mainly subsists of processed foods, and by the disruptors present in our diets, including glyphosate, plastics, and dysbiosis, we are harming ourselves and our children. At the very least, Dr. Gundry contends, these negative influences contribute to the brain fog which many struggle withmild impairment, memory issues, and lack of mental energy.The Gut-Brain Paradox also includes the latest science on how to positively impact a babys developing brain and includes a program to guide readers towards healthy eating, providing recipes and supplements.

You're invited on this culinary journey of self-discovery as Kiera Wright-Ruiz connects to her Latinx roots with recipes and stories from the diaspora."What are you?" is a dreaded question that has followed Kiera Wright-Ruiz around her entire life. She is half Latinx and half Asian, and her journey to understand her identity has been far from linear. Though she is a first-generation American, she didn't have the typical experience often tied to that identity; she didn't grow up in a home where many traditions from her family's home countries were passed down by her parents. Kiera's childhood was complicated, and the role of caregiver was played by various people in her life: from her mom and dad to her grandparents and foster parents. Many of whom were from all different parts of Latin America, and each of them taught Kiera something about what it means to be Latinx through their food.This cookbook is the story of Kiera's journey to embrace her identity and all her cultures: Latinx, Asian, and American. It's a celebration of Latin American food in all its vibrant, flavorful glory, and a love letter to the diaspora. From Ecuador to South Florida, Mexico to Cuba, the recipes in this book are as diverse and unique as the cultures themselves with dishes like: Ecuadorian Seco de Pollo (one of the most beloved dishes from her father's home country)Three Salsas to Know Before You DiePeruvian Ceviche with Leche de Tigre (her aunt's iconic recipe)Elote TaquitosPernil (a traditionally Puerto Rican dish that is now her family's Thanksgiving main course)Lomo SaltadoTamarindoOkonomiyaki QuesadillasPandan Coconut FlanMexican Hot Chocolate CookiesKiera also weaves in charming personal essays to accompany the recipes--from the story of how tamale soup helped bring her family together again after being separated in foster care, to their tradition of bringing visiting relatives from Mexico to what she considers the most American place: Medieval Times.This one-of-a-kind cookbook featuring 100 inventive recipes shows how being half can ultimately lead to being whole. It will inspire you in the kitchen and expose you to a different kind of first-generation story, one that's never been told before.
