  MEDIA HOUND - THE LOCAL INK
November 3, 2007
Well, the truth is finally getting coughed up. The Vancouver Sun will break the "Rob Feenie is Leaving Lumiere" story in tomorrow's (Saturday's) edition of their paper. However, the whole article is already available online. Chef Breaks Ties. And just when we were about to say that we thought it was going to be the Globe and Mail who was going to have the honours, we see that the G&M has also rushed Alexandra Gill's version into print. Not to our surprise, none of it is much different than what we first guessed back in September 26th. Feenie is scheduled to appear tomorrow at noon on the Best of Food and Wine Show with Anthony Gismondi and Kasey Wilson ( CFUN 1410), although he has stated that "he is NOT going to talk about it". Well, we wish him luck with that one. Quite frankly we are happy to hear the end of this business. Rob, we sincerely wish you all the best in your future endeavours. Mr and Mrs Sidoo, we wish you good luck, period! Chef Dale Mackay, we wish you hadn't had to walk into this mess.
UPDATE: Aw, now wait a gall darn minute. This story isn't over yet. We can feel it in our bones. Does anyone else smell a ploy here? As for the rest of the local ink: As usual, it's all up for discussion. The newsstand has been restocked for the weekend. Filed in DAILY NEWS/Dine and Dash ... MEDIA/local Links ... PEOPLE/Chefs ... RESTAURANTS/Personnel Changes.

REGIONAL - VANCOUVER ISLAND
BC FERRIES LINK ISLAND FOOD AND WINE ATTRACTIONS
"People who love locally grown food and wine have the best of two worlds in Vancouver Island's Cowichan Valley and on the Saanich Peninsula – and BC Ferries' Brentwood Bay -- Mill Bay route has been nicknamed the tastiest short cut in B.C.!" Hmm .. we think a private Piper Cessna might provide a faster shortcut, but whatever. Yes, this is a press release, but considering the info it contains may be of some use for our readers (especially the out of town ones) we've taken this one out of the press release ghetto and posted it in our Regional section under the Vancouver Island heading. Boooooooooooop ... Boooooooooop! Happy sailing! ... CONTINUE READING ... Filed in REGIONAL/ Vancouver Island. ______________________________________________________
