Unearthing Global Flavors Locally in the Peel-Halton Region and Beyond.

Unearthing Global Flavors Locally in the Peel-Halton Region and Beyond.

About Olive

I am a locally grown gal, passionate about really good food in the GTA west. I unearth the finest local flavours and showcase our talented artisans and farmers, proving that a refined food culture is rooted and growing in the ‘burbs. I don't receive payment from those I write about. My reward is to encourage the local food scene to reach the highest standards of quality possible, by celebrating those who do food well. I develop my recipes on my old electric range in my wee kitchen in the quaint village of Streetsville – and olive it! Love, Olive (a.k.a. Kelli Charky)

Still hungry? Follow my posts and find lots more Olive on:
