One of St Clair's Very Own Gets
Cooking On TV
|
Christine
Picheca
Very
Good Food
We're
Talking Homemade
|
The
series, which airs weekly on Saturday's at
9:30 am, celebrates the lives and recipes
of six women of different backgrounds.
The
show is about more than just food preparation.
It is about using cooking and baking as
a starting point for educating our children,
passing on family traditions and values
and as an expression of our feelings for
other people.
Very
Good Food's Christine
shares the kitchen with co-hosts Wanda Beaver
(Wanda's Pie in the Sky), Lois Ferguson
(Consultant), Julia Hanna (Nonna Mercato),
Dinah Koo (Tiger Lily's), Sarah Palter (Robin
Hood) and Lisa Rolla (Good Earth Cooking
School).
The
executive producers of the show are Marty
Galin & Avrum Rosensweig, perhaps best
known for their weekly show on CFRB as well
as the TV series "Beer Buddies".
So
take 30 minutes for yourself every week
to tune in to "We're
Talking Homemade" where you'll learn
about recipe secrets, share life stories
and laughter and enjoy some 'very good food'.

philosophy is simple: custom designed menus that

Christine takes pride in personally creating each
menu executed at Very
Good Food. She pays careful attention
to each client's vision, style and tastes and then
custom designs menus to suit each client's specific
needs.

over a decade. It has included stints at Mildred
Pierce; teaching opportunities at the Stratford
Chef School and the Tea Spot; and media attention
from such Toronto outlets as NOW Magazine, Starweek

Atlantis' The Lofters and in CBC's Canada NOW.
Christine is gratified to be able to count among
her long list of private and corporate clientele,
the Canadian Opera Company, CanStage, the Christine
