• Saveurs de L'Artisan

    From JIM WELLER@1:123/140 to NANCY BACKUS on Saturday, September 22, 2018 21:26:00

    Quoting Nancy Backus to Jim Weller <=-

    Etienne Croteau / the Flavour Trader or Saveurs de L'Artisan.
    open 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM [and] from 5 to 6 PM

    So, outside of his limited hours, sounds like he may be doing a
    fair bit of food preparation ahead of time

    Yeah. He works alone and does all his own prep and cleanup. He also
    harvests wild foraged food for both cooking and sale the rest of the
    week.

    To get the day's menu you have to check Facebook the night before

    Does he also post it at the site, for people that just walk in...?
    Or would one have to ask...? Sounds enticing... :)

    He only has 2 things a day sitting in heated hotel pans; so he just
    points and tells you what they are.

    He used to be open just 4 days a week but he has now partnered up with
    another cook who does 2 days. Here's his Facebook introduction of
    her ...

    "Natasha Bhogal, your Chef for tomorow, her father is borned in a
    Indian Family from Kenya. She made for you a Chicken & peanuts
    stew, we have a vegeterian version with chickpeas & res beans. Both
    have a rice & caramelised squash, sweet potatoes, cabage and banana
    plantin"

    Etienne's French is of course better than his English.

    Between the two of them they hit just about every cuisine in the
    world, certainly all the highly seasoned ones. And by all accounts
    they do them all well.

    I had not heard of an "Everything Bagel" until the subject came up
    here. So I googled and now I know ...

    Title: Everything Bagel Seasoning
    Categories: Spice, Mixture, Breads
    Servings: 1 half cupful

    2 TB poppy seeds
    1 TB white sesame seeds
    1 TB black sesame seeds
    1 TB + 1 tsp dried minced garlic
    1 TB + 1 tsp dried minced onion
    2 ts flaked sea salt or
    coarse salt

    In a small bowl, combine the poppy seeds, sesame seeds, dried

    So what do you use Everything Bagel Seasoning for? It is a great
    seasoning for almost anything. Here are some ideas: Avocado toast,
    Baked potatoes, Popcorn, Tomato slices, Hard boiled or scrambled
    eggs, pita chips, Chicken, Roasted vegetables Hummus and Guacamole.

    Yeah. He works alone and does all his own prep and cleanup. He also harvests wild foraged food for both cooking and sale the rest of the
    week.

    Except for harvesting foraged food, sounds a lot like Fu at Taste of
    Japan... he does all his own prep, cooking, cleanup, with just a little
    help from his wife Lin, and even less (mostly on busy nights) from their teenage son... But then he's also open more hours... from 11:30 AM to
    10:00 PM Mon thru Sat, and 3:00 PM to 9:30 PM Sundays... He's also open
    all holidays for the normal hour that that day of the week would have...
    He has called in a couple other family members to help serve when things
    get crazy busy... He also has a much more extensive menu... :)

    To get the day's menu you have to check Facebook the night before
    Does he also post it at the site, for people that just walk in...?
    Or would one have to ask...? Sounds enticing... :)

    He only has 2 things a day sitting in heated hotel pans; so he just

    That works... :)

    Sounds good... :)

    Etienne's French is of course better than his English.

    I can see that... and I'd certainly expect his French to be much
    better... ;) But the English isn't all that bad for a
    Frenchman/Quebecois... :)

    Between the two of them they hit just about every cuisine in the
    world, certainly all the highly seasoned ones. And by all accounts
    they do them all well.

    I'd say you are lucky to have that available... :)

    1 TB + 1 tsp dried minced onion
    2 ts flaked sea salt or coarse salt

    I've usually decided that it's too much of a muchness for the top of a
    bagel... so prefer to get the more simple versions... :) But it does
    look impressive... ;)
