F.A.T. Podcast Episode 92 – Trip to Toronto

On this episode of the Food About Town podcast, my wife Carrie Lindstrom from Crazdude Art and Design made the long walk over to the studio to talk about our trip to Toronto on the coldest day of the year! We jammed in an absolute ton of food and drink experiences over a few short hours and we recapped our whirlwind trip here on the podcast.

This is the fifth episode of my goal to release a new episode every week of 2018. Just finished up a new recording last night to keep the queue chock full of new content for everyone!

This episode is brought to you by Phrankly. Phrankly is working to make sourcing and distribution for restaurants, farms and specialty goods more transparent and change the way people find their food.

We got into town right after lunch time on a Saturday and got right to it. Our agenda is below but all the details can be found if you listen to us recount all the layers we were wearing and all the adventures we had on a true 0°F day in a fantastic city.
