Maple Syrup, Gourmet Popcorn and Tuna-Mango Tartare

It’s been a busy spring and summer for me on Global Television and Breakfast Television in Montreal. I did monthly segments on each morning show, talking about everything from upcoming Caribbean festivals to the best meal delivery services you’ve never heard of to vegan popcorn made with citrus peels from one of Montreal’s top restaurants.

Here’s a little recap:

Breakfast Television January, 2017: Maple Syrup Classifications
Maple syrup got political last winter when Quebec changed the way it labels its golden nectar. I broke it down for Breakfast Television host Elias Makos.

Global Montreal Sept. 20, 2017: Montreal meal delivery taste test from Maurin Cuisine, Freshmint and Goodfood Box Need a quick poke bowl or super salad lunch in the Old Port? Or a full week of rustic, affordable homemade meals in the Mile End? How about a meal kit with the exact amount of the ingredients you’ll need to make seared haddock with a fennel, orange and caper salad? Global Mornings Monteral host Laura Casella tasted her way through the watermelon and feta salad, sweet potato frittata, Mexican rice bowls, and spaghetti and meatballs I brought her.


Breakfast Television Montreal on CityTV, Sept. 14, 2017: Martinique Gourmande – 10 days of Martinique food and culture
I recommend the best of the hot and spicy Caribbean fest highlighting Martinique culture, all while managing to not spill a traditional Martinique tuna-mango tartare and ti-punch all over myself or host Derick Fage.

Global Montreal, June 28, 2017: Gourmet Popcorn Taste Test
Chocolate hazelnut praline? Vegan caramel? Pear amandine? I get Global Montreal host Laura Casella to taste test three brands of local, artisanal popcorn. All of them are available in Montreal and ship across Canada.
