FBC is currently on the road! We just wrapped up a busy week in Toronto that ended with a Saturday afternoon at Kensington Market with a great group of Toronto area FBC Members! This week, we're in Montreal working on preparations for FBC2015 this October. We're so excited to be brining our conference to such a great city - plus it gives us a great excuse to visit Montreal and... well... eat a lot of stuff!

Amazing delicacies come from here - unbelievably fresh seafood, artisan cheeses that have never travelled beyond these shores, wonderful sausages and preserved meats, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, almond-paste confections, honey, wild artichokes and so much more.
