Sipping Pellegrino at The Park Hyatt in Yorkville, you are readying your palate. You arrived just moments before the weather turned, and now you’re watching the Toronto skyline through a gorgeous rainstorm from The Roof Salon on the 18th floor. Paul Verciglio, the General Manager of The Park Hyatt Toronto graciously welcomes you, and Kevin Ellis, the Food & Beverage Director invites you to the next installment of the series in September on Kosher Eating. Your friend visiting from NYC mouths thank you! from across the candle-lit room as she chats up a dark haired writer.

This is Bourbon and Barbecue, the 3^rd installment in The Park Hyatt’s 2012 Masters of Food and Wine, an elegant series designed to celebrate and take the mystique out of local food and drink.   For the “rest of the story”, click here.
