'People don't like calling Montreal multicultural, but the way we eat is' | The Corner Booth

Everyone is looking for a break at the grocery store these days, even former Gazette fine-dining critic and cookbook author Lesley Chesterman. " It's unbelievable the amount of money that we're all spending on food these days. I mean, we're all talking about gas, but let's talk about the price of beef, the price of coffee, the price of chocolate. "All of these things have skyrocketed," Chesterman said on this week's episode of The Corner Booth with hosts Bill Brownstein and Aaron Rand at the Snowdon Deli. She's promoting her latest book, A Montreal Cook. The Corner Booth is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
