Only in Saskatchewan captures the mix of culinary influences--Ukrainian, Indigenous, Italian, Vietnamese, Indian, Persian, Dutch, Mexican, and more--that come together in the land of the living skies.Featuring the north, centre, and south of the province (with dedicated chapters for Saskatoon and Regina), Naomi showcases historic restaurants like the Yvette Moore Gallery Café in Moose Jaw, Baba's Homestyle Perogies in Saskatoon, and Italian Star Deli in Regina, as well as newer favourites like The Dam Smokehouse in Nipawin, Free Bird in Lumsden, and Ayden Kitchen & Bar in Saskatoon.The recipes range from ambitious desserts like Mable Hill's Bourbon Brown Butter Cake with Sour Cherry Topping and Hot Sour Cream Glaze and Golden Grain Bakery's Bismarks, to everyday staples like The Rolling Pin's Borscht and Houston Pizza's All Dressed Pizza, to simpler pleasures like Wolf Willow's Smokey Stovetop Popcorn and Harvest Eatery's Whole Lotta Rosie Cocktail, each one a reflection of the generosity of spirit Saskatchewanians are known for. With food and landscape photography by Garrett Kendel, and a handy sourcing guide to Saskatchewan suppliers, the book is at once a beautiful tribute and valuable resource for exploring the province's culinary scope.
